Thanks for the responses. So basically there is no quick easy way to add a
button to the Entourage panels (a la Word), or modify the functionality of
the Save as Draft button? I was hopeful that they had made it an option,
since the hover text now just says "Save as Draft" (in Outlook Express it
more accurately said "Save this message in the Drafts folder and then close
the window".) But I guess for now I'll be thankful that I have 2 good
hands, and I'll use Command-S, or get a key remapper (any recommendations on
a good one to use?)
On another note, I was surprised that with all the hype over the interlinked
Address book, which apparently works with the Mail Merge printing (hard
copy) feature of Word, you still can't send Merged email in Entourage. How
nice it would be to send email to a list of friends or customers and have
each one say:
Dear <firstname>,
replacing the name dynamically based on the address book entries.
It would increase the usefulness of the Address Book tenfold, in my opinion,
especially with the 8 Custom Fields (increase that to 20 please) that could
be used for invoicing, account management, passwords, etc.
I sure would rather have this feature than the ability to keep track of
everybody's Astrology Sign... Grrr.....
