org-msg VS org-super-links

There is also org-msg as another option (haven't tried both so can't compare).

org-msg replaces a lot of message composition behavior, so it's not a big surprise that it doesn't respect that variable. Make sure you're referencing org-msg's README while customizing it.

Funny, just dealt with the whole O365 authentication just this week. With moving to 2 factor authentication you need to use OAuth 2 to do anything with it. I have my (work) O365 email forwarded, so I do have normal IMAP access. I use isync/mbsync [1] to receive email, goimapnotify [2] to get pushed new email, read/reply/etc with mu4e [3] and org-msg [4] and org-mode, and until recently just plain SMTP to send mail. This last part will break with 2 factor, but found oauth2ms [5] to set up the OAuth to work with O365 SMTP. The trick was to find the "tenet ID" from the Azure page of your organization and to use Thunderbird's credentials [6] (or another mail program, since I can't make new app registrations on Azure to have my own "application"). That should also allow you to use IMAP with OAuth 2 as well, but haven't done that since I still have the forwarding. (As usual, I think the Arch Wiki [7] covers most of this too.)

I'm using org-msg like this (great package btw, doesn't get enough attention if you ask me):

https://github.com/jeremy-compostella/org-msg/issues/1#issuecomment-426415584 is one of the things which pushed me towards org-msg.

For about three years now, I've been using org-super-links, but I'm getting tired of updating its dependencies that I don't use (such as helm, and now it seems to need org-super-agenda too).

Give org-super-links a try, it works great.

Don't get me wrong; it is not a critique, to neither you nor Prot; I am just trying to be helpful for those who are not aware of potential problems when using a file system as a database. It certainly is not a critique to your videos. Your videos are really helpful; after watching your videos, I got it more understanding about backlinks. I am not a good note-taker, and I haven't been using backlinks, I just search in my note file :), but I'll install org-super-links and see how it works. It is really on my list to become better note taker, so I see forward a long series of videos! :).

org-super-links handles this pretty well. If you are more interested in building something custom, I also created org-linker to serve as a bit of a standard base to help with these types of things.

Hey, thanks! Jack-o-tall-tales posted some good ones below here. My original use case was much simpler though. I started it while working on some extension ideas for my org-super-links package. Essentially mapping orgmode files into graphs. I started experimenting with this idea here and made a really bad video to illustrate the idea, but it's just kind of a POC right now. Another idea i want to play around with after that is to maybe explore some orgmode/task dependency stuff (which is kind of related to my org-linker-edna package).

Frankly, I spent 5 minutes trying to understand org-super-links from this link: https://github.com/toshism/org-super-links

Another option would be to use org-capture to record the todos and file them into a dedicated todo file. You could use something like https://github.com/toshism/org-super-links to link back to the file with the meeting notes if you wanted that.
