Anyway, adding support for implicitly storing sent messages in the \Sent folder

this a while back on the SMTP mailinglist, but people there weren't too
enthusiastic about standardizing a feature like this so far.
I was thinking about continuing that after we have implemented something.
Yeah, good idea.
My patch queue (hg mq) is here:
http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-2.2-patches/
The toplevel submission.patch also updates the Dovecot TODO file, so you
can look there for what remains to be done. The auto-save-to-sent
feature is not mentioned there yet.
It seems that the "best" idea really was the one I had in the beginning and
Alexey also suggested:
250 2.0.0 [localcopy] Message accepted
Very IMAP-like instead of SMTP-like, but .. well, it's a very IMAP-specific
feature in any case (until IMAP replacement protocol comes some day).
ManageSieve uses this textual response-code style as well. :)
Some SMTP replies already have a somewhat structured text part, e.g. a
domain name as the first word, or an optional mailbox specification
enclosed in '<' and '>'. So, I don't think it would be completely
strange to put it there.
