Your terminology is confusing. What is retained where? KMail has windows 
while the system as a whole has (display) screens. Are you just talking 
about a message window? If so, simply close it. Saving a message is 
distinct from deleting it, of course. Why would you expect the 
application to close a message window (or delete the message) just 
because you saved a copy to a plain file?

It's perhaps a bit odd that if you delete a message, either by moving it 
to the trash mailbox or by deleting it outright and that message is 
open in a separate window, that window is not closed by the 
application.
