You should be able to do that already.
Not sure what mail agent you use, but I use MH-E. If I want to link a
mail msg to org, I do this:
1 - Type C-c l (org-store-link) which stores this message in a
buffer (may be a ring actually).
2 - pop over to your org-mode buffer, get to the correct location
(or use remember) and hit C-c C-l (org-insert-link)
That's it. Opening that link in org-mode will open up the email
message.
I have mh-e set up to use mairix as my mail indexing tool, and a cron
job that runs mairix once an hour. Org-mode uses mairix to pull out the
message from the appropriate place (pretty sure it does this using the
message ID). The mh-e manual gives detailed instructions on setting up
mh-e with mairix (or other indexing tools, such as swish etc). I suspect
you could also use gnus, VM etc.
Now clearly this depends on you using an emacs mail agent, but why
wouldn't you ? You can spend your whole working life inside emacs. Add
viper-mode for those of us with vi hardwired into our brains, and you
have productivity Nirvana! :-)
