Dear Jean Louis,

Many thanks for your response!

Actually, after I wrote the quesiton i managed to convince myself that
it was meaningless because the question coudl actually make sens only
for clients that were running inside of Emacs.

With your response I realise that the situation may not be that
desperate for Mutt users that I thought and I find this a wonderful
news.

Tow observations I would like to share:

1. With your solution the links contain the name of the folder where the
message is stored. It's not that bad but I am still wondering whether
one couldn't use only the message id, which wold mean that the solution
would work even if the message is moved to a different folder. Of course
that would require a kind of indexing to go frommessage ids to folders
but does that look completely undoable?

2. If I understand you correctly, the part that has to be different when
done fromMutt as compared to when done from Emacs is the store link
stage, which is, if I understand you correctly, where your macro comes
in. But I think if oneis using Emacs in server mode then it should be
possible to call Org's store-link feature by running emacsclient, which
would make the link available to all the other running instances of
emacsclient.

3. A sllightly different topic is if one uses Org as a bookmark manager
and wnat to store into in links that are in message bodies, rather than
links tomessages themselves. But I assume the smae trick of invoking
org-store-link through emacsclient could work. HAs somebody already set
this up?

Thanks,

Seb.
