For the record, I succeeded to get a copy of my sent message in
`inbox' with the settings below, although it is just a workaround.

(setq gnus-gcc-mark-as-read t) ;; don't read the sent messages
(setq gnus-message-archive-group '("nnmaildir+mymailbox:sent" "nnmaildir+mymailbox:inbox"))

The other settings can be seen at this page:

It's far from perfect, but enough for my requirements presently.
