Hope this doesn't confuse the issue for Kai:
I had a similar desire but with some differences. A way to gcc
depending on who a message is from, but not in a group where G p would
do that job. If that sounds confusing, here is a try at explaining it
better.
I generally scan my incoming mail in a preinbox made for that
purpose. Often I find it more convenient than pawing through my
dozens of groups for things to respond to. Once done scanning then
run `B r' respool. So a normal split is then done.
I've found over time that probably 20% of my incoming mail, I
recognize what it is and where from, without splitting. Also know
what to do with it. So some stuff I handle immediately while still in
prein box. This bypasses cool gcc or other stuff you might set in G
p. Also means I sometimes inadvertanly double whammy people because
I'm so used to wide replying (F) to everthing.
Now how might I go about ensuring that messages that will endup in a
group with G p set for gcc, will get the gcc header even if replied to
from preinbox. Some way for gnus to know where a split would have put
the message and gcc accordingly.
