2. To PM myself the draft, you mean copy the body into a text and paste it into a message to PM

Or is there a more direct way to do it? Reason I ask is that the draft I wanted to save was a poll question with a number of choices.

or, cut and paste into your own personal email, mine has draft option.
Only way I can think of unless you want to leave a posting window open for awhile.
You do run risk of it being closed tho.....

If you just want to save it, you could hit f-11 to make a big screen pic an then hit the print key, that would make a copy you could save offline
but not a copy you could add anything to.

If that is not what you need, then I am out of ideas.
