Submit by Email then Save the form

Is there a way to perform this sequence? If I add app.execMenuItem("SaveAs"); to an event on the Submit by Email button, the SaveAs dialog immediately comes up. I'd like to delay this until after the Email dialog appears and the user sends the form by email. At that point, I'd like to give the user the opportunity of saving the form locally. Perhaps a hidden regular button would do it.

With this sequence, the validation that occurs first with the Submit by Email button would happen. After completing the form, the email dialog box would appear. And last, the user would see a dialog where he/she could save the form locally. I've tried using two buttons, but when I put validation on the Save button, some conflict occurs at some point and the SaveAs dialog box never appears. To resolve this conflict, I'm investigating some other way two accomplish these two goals of emailing and form and then saving it.
