The "use your left hand" idea still holds, but you would have to type at
least one keystroke and THEN hit Command-S for it to actually save the
message in your Drafts folder. If you just hit Command-S, it doesn't
actually save anything since you haven't modified the message.
As an AppleScript Newbie here... I kludged together the script below, which
is supposed to solve the Save As Draft issue with a single script.
It's supposed to Reply to a message, type a > (so that the message is
"savable"), and then save the message to Drafts, leaving the message window
open. Unfortunately, it does a "Save As" for some reason even though I am
just trying to get a straight Command-S save.
Any tips or ideas? Also, is there some simple Applescript way to execute
menu commands? Ideally, this script could just be 3 lines long:
write "command-R"
Write " "
Write "command-S"
But apparently things aren't quite that simple.
