Org-mode is not a mail mode. It certainly would not be suitable as a
major mode for composing mail.

Are you perhaps referring to using org for tables and plain lists in
mail messages? In that case you can activate a couple of minor modes
(orgtbl-mode, orgstruct-mode) by hooking them into your major mail
mode.

Instructions can be found here:
