This is an interesting idea. I think the best way to do it might be
to implement a sent_source hook that can override the global default.
It would be wise to either a) not use mbox or b) have dedicated mboxes
for this purpose...until I finally get around to finishing the lock
manager to make shared access safe.
The other gotcha with a hook to pick the source for message storage is
that not all sources are capable of storing mail presently (mbox,
maildir and imap are the only supported types, which admittedly should
cover most people).
I think this would be quite simple to add.
I've also toyed around with the idea of 'patterned' sources so that
you could specify a source as maildir:///u/bwalton/Maildir/inbox-%Y%m
and have new sources picked up automatically as they're created
(possibly by procmail doing autofiling, or something).
