This is something that alot of my elm users have also requested.  Maybe a
question in the dialog for sending which would ask the user if they would
like to save a copy of the outbound message in a particular folder.  This
could then give the recipient name as the default choice of folder.  Sure
would cut down on the amount of manual housekeeping.
