   If you want a copy of all your sent messages, I'd use qmail for that
   instead of relying on anything else.  Assuming your userid is "pekasz",
   have your MUA add a header to outgoing messages:
      Bcc: pekasz-bcc

   Create ~/.qmail-bcc holding the following line:
      | (preline /bin/cat; echo) >> $HOME/mail/sentmail

   This way, you get a copy of the message as it was seen by qmail.  I've
   been using this method for quite some time with no problems.  Since I
   use procmail to handle filtering, I also save portions of outgoing
   message headers in case I lose someone's address:

      % cat ~/.qmail-header
      | (preline formail -XFrom: -XSubject: -XDate: -XTo: -XCc:
          -XMessage-ID: ; echo) >> $HOME/mail/SENT.`/bin/date +%Yw%W`

   (all on one line, of course).

Never criticize a man till you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way, you'll be a mile away from him and have his shoes as well.
