Thanks for all answers and ideas! I don't want to answer to all, so here is a summary: I already knew org capture commands - but as sole util, they don't alone fit what I want. It could only be a part. I also knew that I can tick messages. I already have hundreds of ticked messages so that I started to mark messages as "unread" as a flag for myself meaning "read it again - important". Not a good workflow. I then learned about the Gnus registry, which is a thing I not knew about and which fills a gap which I wondered why it existed. It allows custom flags (solving the above problem) and storing arbitrary data attached to a message. It's very low-level, however, but it would allow to implement what I want. Finally, "Gnorb" seems to fit perfectly, though I was a bit skeptical first cause it seemed a bit complicated. It allows me to capture notes/ todos etc from the Gnus summary buffer. I can let Gnus flag all messages that have an org headline attached in the summary buffer, directly jump to the headline from the messages buffer and back etc - all I wanted. Seems nice - how could something with such a nice name as "Gnorb" disappoint you... ;-) Regards, Michael.
