I have a script scan all my mailspools (I use mbox) and move anything older than a week to archive/<year>/<mailbox>/<month>-<year>-<mailbox> - this keeps my active mail easily to hand, and searching for older mail's as easy as I need it to be. This is pretty similar to your idea, only it uses mbox and saves to a more structured format. -- Thomas 'Freaky' Hurst - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.aagh.net/ - I couldn't remember when I had been so disappointed.
