(start-process "open-mail" nil "open" (format "message:%%3C%s%%3E" mid))) ----------------------------- End Quote ------------------------------ It gives me a new link type "mac-mail" for org-insert-link. Copy the message ID (without the angle brackets) from Mail.app, and insert it as the link location. This is a manual process, of course, but then I'm not using it often, and I don't need it for anything else but Mail.app. org-mac-link as suggested by Diego offers much more convenience by automating the entire process, and by giving you access to many other apps, too. So you might prefer that if you are going to use it often. Hoping to have helped, --alex
