That function contains

        ((null gnus-message-archive-method)
            ;; Ignore.
                nil)

so nothing happens.  I don't like having an extra "archive" server
in the server buffer, when I just use an existing server for saving
outgoing messages.

I tried setting gnus-message-archive-method to '("dummy") and things
seem to work, but I think nil should be a valid value when 
gnus-message-archive-group contains a server prefix.  (And this
seems to match the documentation.)

Actually, the documentation is unclear.  I think this paragraph is
left over from when gnus-outgoing-message-group was not obsolete:

    That's the default method of archiving sent messages.  Gnus offers a
    different way for the people who don't like the default method.  In
    that case you should set `gnus-message-archive-group' to `nil'; this
    will disable archiving.
