I am a victim of my own inability to keep house: My Sent Items folder grows
to incomprehensible and unmanageable proportion. I am not disciplined
enought to clean it out ever X days and I can't go with opting out of having
outgoing mail stored there. I have tried the trick of remembering to CC
myself on critical outgoing mail instead of storing all of it: I forget to
do it.

What a pathetic case I am!

One solution that I envision would be a button that lives on the New Message
dialog: "Save in Sent Items". If I could rig up a way whereby one click on a
button like that would store the mail in Sent Items, otherwise not...now
that is something I could do.

Is this scriptable or add-inable? I suspect that the script wouldn't be too
difficult to write (by somebody who knows how...not me), but attaching it to
the Message dialog might be more challenging.

Perhaps this already exists...perhaps there is an option I have
overlooked...I need a lifeline so I don't drown under the weight of my Sent
Items folder!

Use the in-built archive function....

No, then the Archive folders grows to incomprehensible proportion and
sifting through it becomes a nightmare. I trade one beached whale for
another. I seek the ability to be able to decide, and click one button,
about saving to Sent Items an outgoing email as I am composing it.
