Thanks so much for your patience,

Yes, the app (whether it is Outlook or Mail app of iphone) saves the
mail to the "Sent" folder within the app itself, and I find it in the
folder "Sent" on the webmail. In both cases (whether I send from the app
or the webmail) I see the message in the "Sent" folder on the webmail
marked as read. I tried to mark it as unread, hoping that Gnus will
fetch it, with no success.

For gnus, yes, I receive all messages sent via webmail not the messages
sent via the app!

I am really puzzled about this!
