Hello all,

I'm trying to send an email from MAC - 10.6 or 10.7 - filemaker pro 10
 and have it end up in the drafts folder for review and  sending at a
later date (not auto send)....

- when I send to older entourage - it will auto save and close inside
the drafts folder - just like I'd like it to
- when I send to newer outlook - it leaves the email open in it's own
window... if I looped through a lot of emails then ALL in in separate
open windows.... not a good thing

so, in filemaker - I added an applescript after the send mail step that says:



tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
	activate
end tell

tell application "System Events"
	keystroke "w" using command down
end tell


and it does close the email window - BUT SEEMS TO JUST VANISH AND NOT
SAVE IN DRAFTS...

when I create a new email in outlook and cmd-w it has a dialog window
that asks if I want to save in drafts ---- so I thing I need some
other applescript code?

Q: from FMP 10 how can I auto save in outlook in drafts folder?

Thanks - Dave
