Even I'm interested, I have to craft a way of saving things with org. I noticed during Orgmeetup, yantar92 (Ihor, the Org maintainer) does org-capture on mail. Related config I found in config (https://github.com/yantar92/emacs-config/blob/master/config.org#capture-mail-to-org-task) The author uses notmuch and another external package (org-capture-xref), but I think for gnus the backend should be easy to implement. Hope so you know, we can compose mail in org as well, using org-mime. -- Zororg
