ok so I did a little more intvestigation: The reason why I disabled helm
for `org-refile' and `org-goto' was that completion is not working or at
least not as I wanted. Thats why I set:

#+begin_src emacs_lisp
  (add-to-list 'helm-completing-read-handlers-alist '(org-refile . nil))
  (add-to-list 'helm-completing-read-handlers-alist '(org-goto . nil))
#+end_src

Forgot to mention that.

Now I added:

#+begin_src emacs_lisp
  (add-to-list 'helm-completing-read-handlers-alist 
'(gnorb-gnus-outgoing-do-todo . nil))
  (add-to-list 'helm-completing-read-handlers-alist 
'(gnorb-gnus-incoming-do-todo . nil))
#+end_src

And I get completion without helm. So this is solved. Sorry for the
noise.

But maybe someone can give me a hint how to get helm working here.

As mentioned above I have

#+begin_src emacs_lisp
  (setq org-refile-use-outline-path 'file)
#+end_src

Because I can travel along the path in steps

file <TAB>
  1. Heading <TAB>
  ...
  n. heading <RET>

with completion working for each step. With helm enabled for `org-goto'
and `org-refile' I see canditates for completion, but neither <TAB> nor
M-j have any effect. Minibuffer does not change. When I set
`org-refile-use-outline-path' to nil, I get tons of candidates for
completion but <TAB> has also no effect. And if I hit <RETURN> with an
incomplete input I get an error. This behaviour was the reason why I
disabled helm for `org-refile' and `org-goto' to begin with.

So has anyone helm working for `org-refile' and `org-goto'? I would
appreciate any help here. Thanks.
