When I'm reading some mail groups, I usually tick messages that I plan
to reply to. When I'm really busy, there can accumulate quite a few
messages in my Private group, and it looks really cluttered + I can't
see many *new* messages' subject lines, because they are way below the
ticked messages.
I would like to gain such functionality:
1. If I decide that I want to follow-up later on some message, I press
a key, and the message gets ticked + is moved into some other
folder. Say, Heap.
2. When I have time, I go into the Heap folder, and reply to the
messages. Once I reply a message, it's marked read and is moved into
its original group.
Maybe it would be better to mark the message read, and *copy* it into
the heap in step 1.
How doable is such thing in current Gnus? How would I approach it?
Thanks,
--

It would seem that nndraft already provides this functionality and you
don't have to move any messages around.
Simply bind this function to one of your available keys:
(defun edb-gnus-reply-later (n)
"Send message to drafts now and reply later."
(interactive "P")
(gnus-summary-reply-with-original n)
(message-dont-send)
)
Note that if you have Supercite enabled it will ask you for the
attribution before saving to the drafts group.
