It often happens to me that I send a message (Gnus) and need to keep a
reference of the mail just sent as link in an org file.  In Gnus copies
of sent messages can be store in one or more groups using the `Gcc'
header.  So I usually select the group where the copy went right after
sending and do an `org-store-link' on the newly created copy.

It would of course be much nicer if the org link could be stored
automagically upon sending the message (or more precisely upon creating
the copy of the message).  Such functionality could certainly be
introduced in `gnus-inews-do-gcc' where group and article number of the
copy are determined and the actual copy is written.  But that would mean
to actually modify Gnus code which is probably not a good and clean
approach.

As I'm not very familiar with the Gnus code I'll probably have to ask at
the Gnus towers if it's possible to get hold of the group and article
number of the last Gcc message created.  But maybe someone around here
has a partly or completely different idea how to achieve the described
behaviour?
