Normally if you send a mail in gnus, it gets archived in 'sent' folder,
however this is not the case for 'compose-mail'.

I tried modified:
(setq message-default-headers "Gcc: nnfolder+archive:sent")

But this would add duplicate line when sending through gnus and through
C-x m.  As far as I can tell, there is no way to make it work properly
without using some hacky method like having a function check if thsi
line exists in a message-mode hook.

Whatʼs your 'mail-user-agent' set to? If you want to get "gcc"
populated, setting it to 'gnus-user-agent' should be enough.

So can we close this bug? I can do it, or you can do it by sending
email to 75579-done <at> debbugs.gnu.org (ideally with a reason for closure
:-))
