I do this.  It sets Gcc: based on what group I'm in.
For example, mailing lists to which I'm subscribed
will automatically send me a copy, so there's no use
saving the one I composed.

  (defun aar-gnus-outgoing-message-group ()
    (let ((outbox "nnimap+personal:INBOX.outbox"))
      (cond ((message-news-p) outbox)
            ((and gnus-newsgroup-name
                  (stringp gnus-newsgroup-name)
                  (string-match "^\\(nnml:mail\\)\\|nnimap" gnus-newsgroup-name)
                  (not (string-match "\\.list\\." gnus-newsgroup-name))
                  (not (string-match "[a-z.]+\\.its\\." gnus-newsgroup-name)))
             (list gnus-newsgroup-name)))))
  (setq gnus-outgoing-message-group 'aar-gnus-outgoing-message-group)
