Sorry for this very long reply... I like to keep my email inbox small, when I read emails I capture todos, ideas, somedays, etc that pop up from reading them in my orgmode inbox.org where I keep all non-processed stuff (according to my implementation of GTD :). Then I file away the email in some folder for reference and seldom move it again. So, I think I only need to update the links in inbox.org, that should take care of most of my broken links.

Hmmm, yes this seems to be a good move. :) I actually have been using mairix earlier for searching but stopped using it... I should really look into this again.
