Groupwise does have a save to drafts option.

But there are several things that you can do.

1) Use evolution, it has a groupwise connector that comes with  
evolution/.

2) pop your groupwise mail using fetchmail and use whichever program  
you'd like to read your email.

3) pop or imap to your account using which ever client you would like.

Personally, I use option #2 right now.

Mike.
