Hi, can anyone tell me if there is some way to automatically keep a track of my posts in a single place. I am sometimes forgetful so would rather have gnus tell me which groups I have posted in, when, and what the subject was.

(setq gnus-message-archive-group
'((if (message-news-p)
"sent-news")))
This will create you a group called "nnfolder+archive:sent-news".

Ya gotta love the un*x attitude, text-based tools, and emacs lisp. 3
lines to accomplish what probably no other newsreader could hope to
do.
Sadly a lot of useful posting is now done in individual web-based
"forums". Damn hard to keep track of all these disparate sites. Ya
gotta hate the micro$oft attitude, gui-based tools, and
point-and-click. Thousands of lines of code to accomplish the most
basic chores.

the Catholics or the God of the Protestants in whom you don't
believe?'

Actually, since that is so simple, perhaps the following is not too difficult either; is there any way for gnus to also keep a track of replies to my posts? So I just need to look in the nnfolder+archive:sent-news group?

None that I know of. Gnus would have to scan all newsgroups for this to
find these replies. I'm sure this is possible somehow, but it may be
painfully slow.
I just give replies to my posts a higher score value so they get a
different color and thus are easy to find in the summary buffer.
