Is it possible to structure a large collection of emails in an org file ? Are
there any specific tools for doing this ?
I have used pine for many years but the business of categorizing sensibly into
folders the hundreds of mails which
come each week is out of hand. Googlemail is offering a single file of emails,
with (multiple) `tabs' replacing
the functionality of folders. This seems like a great step forward, but I don't
like GUIs, and I'm not happy that on
googlemail it seems not to be possible to download an email to disk with header
information. (And I don't want all
my emails permanently on someone else's server.)
Maybe this has been thought of already, but I can't see it anywhere. I've never
used mail under emacs (though I've used
emacs for about 12 years).
What I have in mind is a single text file containing (say) one year's 10^5
emails. I could go through attaching tabs,
TODO notes, draft replies, rude remarks, tags, ... able to open a specific
category ...
If I'm reinventing the wheel, please don't be too harsh.
