For the 'Copy to Sent' function... if you sent a message somehow

No need for a new extension, it's easier to make your MTA deliver a
copy of outgoing mail to the 'Sent' folder for those users that want it.
OK, I'm game. Design this for me assuming Postfix + Dovecot. Lets
assume they are on different servers just to examine the more general
situation. We can probably assume an authenticated sasl connection or
else it becomes fairly intractable, but we have to assume that
customers can choose their FROM address (for many setups the incoming
connection might be both unauthenticated AND have random (even forged)
FROM addresses...)
So what should the config look like?

Assuming you are talking about my idea that IMAP have an outgoing mail
extension and copies the outgoing message to the sent folder.
After dovecot receives he outgoing message it will just do an SMTP
connection to a server that is set up to receive it and relay it.
smtpserver = 1.2.3.4
copyfolder = sent
Is this what you are asking?
