I do not understand why. Every beginner intested in org-mode is interested
for such or such application, and that's a strange reply to make to a
beginner like me to reply : "sorry but your request is not a beginner's
request". And if I am interested in org-mode mainly for the feature?

I have not found a clear tutorial to help me on this point, and even in the
org-mode manual, the relationship between org-mode and emacs email client
like gnus is very difficult to understand. Again, I have not seen an easy
example to follow.

Thanks for this reference, I have tried these commands on a draft in my
gnus, of course nothing work. I suspect that I need to configure gnus
before...

My point in this discussion was to pointing out that it is not only
structure of tutorials  can be a problem, but the content of explanations.
Again, if no example is given for each task that one can realize with
org-mode, only geeks expert in emacs will be able to read manuals for
org-mode, and in my opinion it's too bad.

Best wishes,

Jo.
