    You can do something in Pine which may accomplish the same purpose. 
In the addressbook, when you set up an alias (or nickname) for someone,
you can specify Fcc for that recipient.  You can use any legal folder
name that does not conflict with some already existing folder -- unless
you deliberately want to store outgoing mail from more than one person
in the same folder.  Then, when you want to send mail to someone, use
the nickname on the To: line of the headers, and Pine will
automatically save that message in the particular folder you specified
in the addressbook for that person.  (If you wish, you may change it at
the last minute for any single message.)
