If NNTP, then have you altered the "Copies & Folders" from the default?
E.g.,
"Edit > Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings > news.mozilla.org > Copies &

When sending messages:
[X] Automatically place copy in:
[X] "Sent" Folder on: [Local Folders]
I may have, years ago when I first subscribed, but I don't recall.
I do see LF selected for archives, but there is no Archives folder under
LF, and I've never created any archive(s) for this account. SM
apparently doesn't do so on its own -- or perhaps that's because there
have never been any messages in LF for it to archive.
Yes yo have to manually select items to archive before SM archives them
(I guess you might be able to make a filter). The Archive folder is not
created until you archive something. Same as no Sent until you send
something, or Junk, or Trash, ...
In fact, I don't recall ever seeing any messages of any kind in Local
Folders at any time in my 20-plus years with NS/Mozilla/SM. It seems
unlikely that I've been so scrupulously vigilant as to prevent it so
perfectly. After all, I'm a fallible, forgetful human being.
That said, aside of the setting for Archive what of the others?
Default looks like this:

If you don't have it set for other folders then of course copies will
not be made. Maybe you disabled them 20-plus years ago.
