This works just fine for me.  I use emacsclient with a running server
and ^X^S + ^X^C closes the frame and client and focus is back on the
MailMate compose window.  In the last line, this script
https://github.com/alexandru/emacs.mmbundle/blob/master/Support/bin/edit
activates MailMate again.  Maybe your execution does not reach that point?

In any case, every time the file is saved, the MailMate compose window is updated.  It watches that file.

Cheers,
Thomas
