In case you do have access to your mail server:

Since I do not use an Emacs-based mail setup, I created a workaround
by bouncing relevant emails to a special email address I use for
forwarding emails to Org-mode. I am maintaining my own email server
and I am using procmail[1] to filter/preprocess emails.
When an email is found to that specific email address the following
rule applies:
,----
| :0
| * ^(Resent-To|X-Original-To|To|Bcc|Cc): orgm...@my-domain.at
| {
| :0
| |/home/karl/src/vk-add-email-to-org.sh
| }
`----
With the script:
,----[ vk-add-email-to-org.sh ]
| #!/bin/sh
|
| ## generates an org-file-entry from the email sent through stdin
|
| ORGFILE="/home/karl/org/inbox.org"
|
| ## build email by adding input from stdin line by line:
| while IFS= read -r line
| do
| email="${email}
| ${line}"
| done
|
| subject=`echo "${email}"|formail -x "Subject"`
| header=`echo "${email}"|formail -X "From" -X "Subject" -X "Date" -X
"Message-ID" -X "To"`
| body=`echo "${email}"| sed -e '1,/^$/ d'`
|
| echo "* TODO Email:"${subject} >> ${ORGFILE}
| echo >> ${ORGFILE}
| echo "#+BEGIN_QUOTE" >> ${ORGFILE}
| echo "${header}" >> ${ORGFILE}
| echo "#+END_QUOTE" >> ${ORGFILE}
| echo >> ${ORGFILE}
`----
Refiling from my inbox.org is the same process as refiling my input from
MobileOrg.
