Can't you just change your buffer mode to org-mode, compose, change back to message-mode and send? Did you want to do more than that?
I played around with using a heading with properties to send an email. Basically the heading is the subject, you set some properties about TO, CC, etc... and the heading content is the body. You just put your cursor in the heading and run M-x email-heading. You can see the code here https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/email.el#L31 and https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/email.el#L35 It saves some details in properties, like when it was sent, etc... It is occasionally useful to me.
