The simplest solution I've found so far is just add the %BCC="address"
macro to all your templates. Then I have an Incoming mail Template set
up to move any messages from me to my sent folder. That way it looks
almost exactly as though I sent the messages from the local machine,
well, at least to the approximation I need.
Actually, if you have a lot of templates that would be affected, instead
of adding just the %BCC macro, add a common quick template to all of them
with the %BCC in there. That way you can update the address quickly if
ever you choose to change it, or if you wanted to add another address to
the list.
