I've just switched to mu4e. It's unbelievably great, thank you everyone
who's recommended it over the years.

However, I would like to compose my replies in org-mode and send them out
as HTML.  I guess the older tools for doing this are officially deprecated.
Nonetheless, does anyone use them? Would you be willing to share your
workflow, and thoughts about what pain points you still have?? I see John
K. has written some cool posts about, e.g., sending headings out, but not
about org-ifying the compose buffer.

Thank you!
Matt

It looks like you may be looking for `org-mu4e-compose-org-mode'.

....  duh...

Thank you. So, if I want this to be on by default, do you happen to know
where I should add a hook?

Really appreciate the help,

I believe you can add a hook to `'mu4e-compose-mode-hook'.

something like the following (not tested) may work:

(add-hook 'mu4e-compose-mode-hook
          (defun do-compose-stuff ()
              "My settings for message composition."
              (org-mu4e-compose-org-mode)))

You might like this post:

I also sent it to the mailist, using the code as an html mail. I have
not seen it yet though, so if it doesn't make it through (being html and
all ;) You can check out the post.

Hey everyone, I am definitely still seeing this problem; I just sent a new
email to the mu list to see if anyone there has the same issue. Google
groups link is here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mu-discuss/Hvl9wzI01DA

if you are able to reproduce or can see immediate errors in my ocnfig I'd
be grateful to hear about it.
Thanks!

In case, at some point, someone else starts seeing the same problem, I seem
to have fixed it.  There appears to be some kind of bad chemistry between
recent org-mode, recent mu4e, and message mode.  The trick for me was
making sure that org-mu4e-compose-org-mode was switched off before
message-send-and-exit ran:

(defun htmlize-and-send ()
  "When in an org-mu4e-compose-org-mode message, htmlize and send it."
  (interactive)
  (when (member 'org~mu4e-mime-switch-headers-or-body post-command-hook)
    (org-mime-htmlize)
    (org-mu4e-compose-org-mode)
    (message-send-and-exit)))

The second-to-last line is my only change.

Matt

one last thing:

I had some further trouble when I tried to turn on
org-mu4e-compose-org-mode as a hook to mu4e-compose-mode. I'm pretty sure
there's some kind of a loop related to the funky post-command-hook-setting
internal function org~mu4e-mime-switch-headers-or-body. Anyway, turning off
hte hook and applying the above hook fixed my issue.  Added a couple of
keybindings and now everything works!
