Hi all,
I use Gcc extensively. The Gcc'd copy is always fresh, of course. I
wish there was a way to tell Gnus, while the message is being
composed, that the Gcc'd copy should come up ticked or read
immediately so that I don't have to enter the group again after
sending the message to do it myself.
Would that be feasible?

Well -- I don't really know whether that would be all that useful.
Can't you just `c' the group from the grup buffer to mark all articles
as read?

I think I agree with Kai. I've now customized Gnus in a way that I get
Gcc copies of everything in the different groups where I want
them. After sending messages I still have to enter those groups to
mark my own copies as "read". I wouldn't have to do that if they were
automagically marked as "read".
I'm not sure why I would want them ticked automatically though. I
usually keep my own stuff just for the record. It can't be important
enough to get ticked ;-)
Cheers.

I too would find this functionality useful.
I read mail using Gnus, and I would like to GCC my replies into the group
in which I am replying. That way, when I look at my mail in nnml:misc.mail,
I can also see my replies. I can do this presently, no problem, but it's a
bit of a pain to have to mark my replies as read when I'm processing
_really_ unread mail.
And ticking GCC'ed copied would be useful for those oh-so-important replies
that I really can't afford to forget.

For one thing, this doesn't tick any articles. And there are groups
where I keep *every* mail, ticked. Would I have to switch from
total-expire to auto-expire for this one group, just to be able to
`c'?
Also, this doesn't work when there are other messages besides my own
in the group. And this happens quite often, too.
How about a header X-Gcc-Mark which can be set to `r' or `!' or
something?

"me too!" I've recently switched to using gcc to directly drop
outbound messages in the right place (so this posting wiill go in
nnml:mail.ding, along with the other incoming mail from the ding
list...) On problem: I set gnus-message-archive-group to (lambda(x)
(list "misc-mail" x)) which does the right thing when my mail is in
nnml:* and news is just in news.group.whatever, but when I've got nnml
as the gnus-select-method, and the groups are actually named mail.*,
it ends up building a gcc line pointing to nnfolder+archive:mail.*
instead. I haven't dug around to find out how to deal, but it's
pretty clear that "this isn't how lars does it" or it would be easier :-)

FWIW, here's what I do. Not too sophisticated, but kind of nice, I
think. I have bound the last function to a key in message-mode.
I don't remember why I didn't use gnus-message-archive-group.

I made a small patch to gnus-msg.el that provides a new group
parameter "gcc-self". If this is set to t in a groups's parameter
list, the gcc line is always build according to the right group name
if you send from inside of this this group. I process all my article
saving with this, except for a standart archive server line for misc
mail or misc news like:
(setq gnus-message-archive-group
'((if (message-news-p)
"misc-news"
"misc-mail")))
If gcc-self is set to none, no gcc line at all appears in this group. I
use this for articles gong to mailing lists I,m subscribed to, as my
article will come back anyway.
A typical group parameter list would be (for ding.ifi.uio.no):
;; Type `C-c C-c' after editing the group parameters.
((gcc-self . none)
(to-address . "ding@ifi.uio.no"))
And another for some private email:
;; Type `C-c C-c' after editing the group parameters.
((gcc-self . t)
(to-address . "LITZLER@KHE.SCN.DE"))
I append my patch below, I already sent it to Lars but it will not be
integrated (if at all) before Red Gnus.

Ok, this seems to be something many people want, so I've added it to
the Red Gnus todo list.
