Hi Eric,

I just tried pasting content from an org file into a message-mode buffer
and calling org-mail-htmlize on the region, and sending the resulting
message to gmail. It worked very nicely, with two drawbacks:

1. The content contained links to an image like [[file:file.png][]]. I
   had to manually copy the image to /tmp in order for it to be found on
   sending.

2. The TODO keywords and timestamps lacked their org-mode fontification.

Is there a different procedure I should use to do what I'm trying to do,
or are these tweaks that could be made to your code? I have not
attempted to follow the technical aspects of this thread so I may well
be misunderstanding stuff here.

Thanks!

Dan
