One simple way is to define "message:" as an alias for "mailto:", which
is the Org syntax for such links. This is done with
`org-link-abbrev-alist' variable, or in-buffer "LINK" keyword:
(setq org-link-abbrev-alist '(("message" . "mailto")))
One drawback is that you cannot write plain links with abbreviations. So
[[message:foo@bar.baz]] works, but message:@foo@bar.baz does not.
If that is an issue, you can also define a new link with
`org-link-set-parameters':
(org-link-set-parameters "message"
:follow (lambda (path) (browse-url (concat "mailto:" path))))
HTH,
