This is one of the crucial features only Eudora has today for me. If I am sending messages from another email client than my main Eudora (like from a mobile) I always Bcc: myself. In Eudora, I have a filter for incoming messages coming from myself, and the filter then changes the message status to "sent". This way, mail sent from somewhere else finally looks identical to mails actually sent from Eudora. Furthermore, as this is the first filter applied, further filters can sort these sent messages like locally sent messages (for example by topic or customer).

Together with Eudora's "who" column which shows the recipient for sent messages and displays sent messages in italic, this is a key element that made Eudora my preferred (in fact - indispensable) email client. So I hope this will be added to Penelope as well.
