It works fine. Thanks for the lead.

It you can tweak all the org-format-latex-options as well.

(plist-put org-format-latex-options :html-scale 1.5)
(plist-put org-format-latex-options :html-background "black")
(plist-put org-format-latex-options :html-foreground "white")

Gnorb looks really interesting, but is lacking a crucial "using 
it" section on the github [1], so I don't know what it can 
actually do or what a use-case would be. Does it do what org-mime 
does?

See the variable org-format-latex-options . you might be able to change
it. Maybe something like (untested)

(plist-put org-format-latex-options :html-background "white")

Do you think Is it possible to invert the colors of the latex images? I use a 
black
background and it's impossible to see the latex images.

You need to install Org from their special Elpa:

Good idea.  But ", t o" to switch into org-mode and ", t m" to switch
back to message mode (I use evil) is not really onerous.

I thought there might be an easier way, but this one definitely gives the
most complete feature set.

org-mime.el is in org contrib package.  I am not sure how you might be
able to get this as it will depend on how you get org in the first
place.  Are you using org from git or melpa or from the web site
directly?

I simply change to org mode (e.g. M-x org-mode RET) to compose and then
back to message mode (M-x message-mode RET) when ready to htmlize the
buffer and send the email.

Very nice - but I have two question:

1) do I have to load something to have this function? I don't seem to
have it

2) What is the easiest way of writing a mail in gnus in org format? I
would like to have all features of org if possible?

Re: [O] State of things: Email with orgmode?

[Eric S Fraga]

One of the links between org and email is using org-mime-htmlize which will 
take your email buffer (using gnus in my case but a message buffer) and create 
a text+html mime encoded email in which the plain text is parsed as an org file 
and exported to HTML.

I don't use this often but I do use it now and again, for instance when a table 
is a necessary element of the email or if I want to have some LaTeX equations 
in the email.

* An example

For instance, the following equation *may* appear in the email, depending on 
what you are using to view your emails:

\begin{equation}
y = \sqrt{x}
\end{equation}
