Emails saving to folder rather than dumping into the general folder

When I send an email message from a matter within Smokeball, the email dumps into the general email area (this is at the bottom where all files, favorites, documents etc… are).  Is there a way to tell the program to save the email to a specific folder within the email section of that area?

With the classic outlook plug-in, this was possible if you right-click on the email and then tag it to Smokeball using the fly-out menu.  With the add-in for the new outlook, you are only provided the option to select a folder if the email has an attachment, at which point you get prompted to designate folders for both the email and the attachment.

I have a separate thread on the differences between the two Outlook add-ins.  I will add this...
