Did you subscribe to it?

You can use F in the *Group* buffer to find new groups.

I open my nnml+archive:mail-2025 group and look at the email.

You can configure Gnus to behave similarly, if that is what you want.

If you are using nnimap, something similar to:

    ; Archive outgoing email in Sent folder on imap.mcom.com:
    (setq gnus-message-archive-method '(nnimap "imap.mcom.com")
          gnus-message-archive-group "Sent")

should do the trick - of course you need to change "imap.mcom.com" to
whatever IMAP server you have configured.

And you have to subscribe to the "Sent" group.

I have a group per year, yes. The default, as you saw, is one per
month. I prefer one per year.

A new group magically appears. In my setup, next year when I write the
first email of the year, a copy is stored in the new group
nnml+archive:mail-2026.

I would look at the sent messages in Gnus, but it's up to you how you
want to do it.

How to handle email is a very personal thing.
