The setup is dependent on which emailer you choose to use in Emacs. With
the exception of recent versions of Gnus (which can use the builtin shr
render), they all seem to depend on using w3m as a backend. Which
emailer are you using?
For composing html mails (if you must), you can use org-mime.el:

If you use bbdb, you can sync it with Google Contacts with Asynk:
