Thank you.  My last previous update was before 11/10.  I just now got
the latest gnus from CVS, and I see this setting.

This helps, but it isn't quite what I want, either.

Here's a typical situation of mine:

I have a hypothetical user's public key in my key ring.  Suppose this
user's address is `hypo@thetical.us'.

I want to send an encrypted message to that user, and I want a copy of
that message to be archived locally.  I use the following to do so:

  Gcc: nnml+archive:email-archive

I write the message to hypo@thetical.us and I enter `C-c C-m c o'
(mml-secure-message-encrypt-pgp) to flag it to be digitally encrypted
via GPG.

I then invoke `C-c C-c' (message-send-and-exit).

I get prompted for the passphrase, and the message gets sent and
archived (with a second passphrase prompt).

Here's what I want to occur:

- The message goes to hypo@thetical.us encrypted by her public key.

- The message goes into nnml+archive:email-archive, either not encrypted
  at all (my preferred choice), or at worst case, encrypted with _my_
  public key.

I just tested this using today's latest CVS, and the outgoing message
_and_ the Gcc are both encrypted with the the _recipient's_ public key
(I need the recipient password to view the message in my nnml archive).

But even if I correct this, my preferred outcome is that the Gcc does
not get encrypted at all.  Is there any way to do this?

Thanks again, in advance.
