Unfortunately, the Preview menu item is hard coded to use Mail.app.
Mailplane cannot change it, only Apple can do it :)

To streamline your workflow, you could create an Automator workflow as a
service (to get the keyboard shortcut):
- Tell Preview.app to save changes
- Get filename from Preview.app
- Tell Mailplane to compose a new message with the PDF as an attachment.

Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
