How do I make a message filter apply to sent mail?

For the most part, I want my outgoing messages saved in the Sent Mail folder as normal.

However, there are a handful of people for whom I need ALL correspondence -- incoming and outgoing -- to be saved in its own folder.

It's easy for me to set up a message filter that shunts their emails to me (incoming) into a unique folder. However, I cannot find a way to shunt my emails to them (outgoing) into that same folder.

I've done this with other mail programs (Kmail was especially good with this sort of thing), but am stumped trying to figure out how Thunderbird handles this. What am I overlooking?

When you open the Message Filters window, under Tools, then select the account at the top, then click the 'Run selected filter(s) on' drop-down at the bottom, do you see Inbox, Sent and Trash as the choices?

I haven't tried this to see if it works correctly on the Sent messages (there is an add-on that claims to do this), but according to this bug report, filtering of sent messages should be included in TB 38, due within about a week.
