I think you want to go the archives to nnml:sent-mail, right?  So I
suggest to abstain from touching gnus-message-archive-method at all,
and just set gnus-message-archive-group to "nnml:sent-mail" instead
of "sent-mail".  That's what I do, and it makes me happy.

(I just ignore the superfluous nnarchive server that I get due to the
default setting for gnus-message-archive-method.)
