I suppuse that by writing "program" you mean Emacs' compose-mail, gnus etc. External handler of course, would be useful too. > Hum.

Later at home I thought about it some more: - The To, Cc and Bcc headers read from :PROPERTIES: or collected with minibuffer. - Sent-To field in the PROPERTIES drawer filed after sending mail. This might require collecting addresses from within org-mode before invoking mail program (the above). - Move the list from Sent-To to Old-Sent-To everytime the node or its child or its attachment changes (this might be quite difficult to implement but awesome to have) - Custom mail headers to include in the PROPERTIES drawer. Something like :PROPERTIES: :MailHeader-X-Face: l;aksjdf;ioavh9p8qrty9 :END would result in X-Face: in the mail. X-Face, however, would probably be configured with a mua but I am sure someone will find it useful. - Message-ID derived from node's ID. This would be quite useful for associating replies with original notes/nodes. These are of course my whishful thoughts, especially the one with Old-Sent-To. I think, however, that org-mode with them implemented would be even greater tool than it is today. -- Miłego dnia, Łukasz Stelmach _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
