Just that. However, it would be great to save a copy in an org file. An emacs FAQ suggests sending a BCC or FCC to oneself. What I want is a copy stored in an org-mode subtree, with a convenient headline indicating the name of the recipient and the date. So far, I haven't gotten my head around the idea of using BABEL, and I still like text for email. My experiments with GNUS have not been very successful. So far. I apologize for the naive level of this and some of my other questions. Though I may not be getting the maximum usefulness of all of org-mode's features, those features I do use are awesome. Thank you.
