The link-type "message" is one of the ones org handles by default, it
is an explicit case in org-open-at-point, much like http and it is
handled by the following code:
((member type '("message"))
(browse-url (concat type ":" path)))
However it is not included in the default value of org-link-types:
(defvar org-link-types '("http" "https" "ftp" "mailto" "file" "news"
"shell" "elisp" "doi"))
...and therefore it doesn't work when clicked/followed.
Manually adding it to org-link-types makes it work correctly. For me,
anyway.
True enough. But what is a "message:" link? Can you give an example
of its usage?
