Are you sure that (info "(gnus)Posting Styles") isn't enough?

Topics don't have anything to do with splitting mail (Note that in
Gnus, we use the term `splitting' rather than `filtering' or
`sorting').  If (info "(gnus)Splitting Mail") and (info "(gnus)Fancy
Mail Splitting") (I'd recommend the latter) don't help you, you should
be more specific.

Adding "Cc:".  But please post further questions to the group and not
by PM.  BTW: You may use the "Mail-Copies-To:" header if you want to
receive mail copies.

Bye, Reiner.
