Add hasMany record in beforeSave

Hi there,

I'm having some problems adding a hasMany instance to another model
in beforeSave, I'm wondering if I have the wrong end of the stick?

I have a model User which hasMany EmailMessage. I have this in the add
action of my controller:

$this->data['EmailMessage'][0] = array(
'email_queue_id' => 1,
'email_address' => 'toby@testing.com',
'send_date' => date ("Y-m-d H:i:s"),
'subject' => 'test subject',
'body' => 'test body');

$this->User->saveAll($this->data, array('validate' => 'first'));

This works as expected. I thought I could move the creation of the
EmailMessage to my beforeSave in the User model - I just copied the
first line to the end of my beforeSave, just before I return 'true'.
When I do this nothing is saved in the email_messages table - am I
doing something wrong, or have I misunderstood something?

Thanks,

Toby
