I too use BusyCal and would love to create calendar entries from with 
MailMate.
However, as fas as I can tell (I do hope somebody proves me wrong), 
BusyCal
does not have an AppleScript dictionary, effectively rendering it 
non-scriptable.
That's a siginifcant obstacle to a tight integration with MailMate (with 
any
other application, for that matter).

Fantastical, the other (genius, I have to say) calendar app that I have 
around
here, appears to be scriptable.  Adding an event to Fantistical will 
also make
it show up in BusyCal/Calendar (syncing).  I'll probably have a go at
Fantastical/MailMate integration these days.

Cheers,
