update: 98% done. the AS will take any email (incoming/outgoing/draft or even another note), and convert it to a note, stripping off all unneeded headers, keeping only the useful ones.
it creates a new 'from' header: 'Note 2 Self' so it stands out and the subject is carried over rather than generated from the first line of the body. if the subject is blank or just a reply to a blank (or multiples, i.e. re: re: re:), then it will set the subject to up to the first 5 words of the body! (going to convert that block of code to a standalone that will automatically fix any incoming messages with no subject!) i've gotten as far as having the note created and open staring me in the face; Mail is not sending the new message id back to AS for me to figure out how to file it, that's the last 2% then i'm done. it got a lot more complicated than i thought it would be so i probably won't release it as 'code' but will likely release it compiled as an app.
