This happens already if you add the Fcc header to the message, AFAIK.
Why is there a need for a separate global knob, when you can specify
that on a per-message basis?
Thanks.

This is not mentioned in the docs. Also, I think it's a bit of a hack,
it sends mail back and forth needlessly and lumps it with other received
mail.
I think it's more natural to save it when you send it.

Wait, I thought you were talking about Bcc. I didn't see Fcc, now I
found it.
