On email messages I BCC myself, and let it run through the same
mailfiltering as incoming messages.  Ie. sent mail appears in the same
nnimap groups as related incoming mail.

On news postings I usually reply to, or forward, the article from the
group I posted to.

When this hasn't happened (eg. because of slow mail delivery to gmane),
I have used the trick of adding a space and deleting a space, and saving
the article.  Then the article ends up in the nndrafts:draft folder, and
I can reply-to, or forward the article from there.
