thx tassilo.
i'd found a temporary fix yesterday simply by changing the 
nil
to
misc-mail

so that sent emails went to ~/Mail/archive/misc-mail.

i also tried unsuccessfully to have it go back into the inbox (which is
where i'd like it to go since that's where my regular sent mail ends
up), but it seems 
gnus-message-archive-group
requires a file name not something like 
nnimap+Mail:

it's different from the gnus-parameters variable.

so that's what i'm going to work on next.
