My 2 cents :

I know that when you send an email from Google smtp, you don't have to save
it anywhere. It will automagically be saved with a GMail/Send tag (most of
the time 'Send' only'). You don't configure your GMail account to save
anything in msmtp; it happens on Google side.
Isn't there a way to do so with msmtp ? I know you can choose an account to
send from, but after a quick looking you can't choose a folder where to save
the sent email. Maybe you'd have to choose another MTA to save the sending
mail ? Simple relays like msmtp or nbsmtp (in the example) can't save in a
specific folder. sup is just like mutt, an MUA, and HAPPENS to be able to
save your sent mail to a specific folder. But I think it's not the main
purpose of it, or am I wrong ?
