Yes, when "Fcc:" shows up in the header (by either re-selecting the
template (C-c C-j), or "w" when in Summary-buffer for that account) it
works, i.e. ends up in my Sent folder for that account. C-c C-e does
not give me the "Fcc" in the header and sent mails won't go to "Sent"
folder.

My config it the one on:

Relevant part of my exact one is here:

Yeah, I know, but having the wrong email address ("From:") in the
header while I'm writing the draft makes me nervous, even if it gets
set correctly when sending (C-c C-c).

I have my wl-draft-config-alist just load/call the wl-template-alist,
and that part seems to work since everything else gets set correctly,
for that account like the "From:" header, and I don't see why "Fcc"
should be different, which I guess it shouldn't be.
