I think there is another solution:

1. Make C-c l (org-store-link) store message-id so that org-insert-link
   will insert something like:

  [[gnus:nnml:mail.compas#<address@hidden>][Message description]

  intead of the current format:

  [[gnus:nnml:mail.compas#2306][Message description]]

2. If `gnus-registry.el' is in use, rely on it to double-check in which
   group the message is. If it's not in use, rely on the link infos.

   It's straightforward to get the group from a message-id with
   gnus-registry.el: 
 
     (cddr (assoc "message-id" gnus-registry-alist)) 

   Then with the group and the message-id you'll find the email.

I don't go further because this method relies on org-store-link being
aware of message-id, but that should not be hard to turn this on, maybe
as an option.

Anyway, i think gnus-registry comes in handy here.

Cheers,
