I think such feature would require an Archive folder supporting
placeholders. Someone might want to use "Old-%Y", other "Archive/%Y",
some "Archive/%m-%Y" yet other "Archive/%Y-%m" .

As such, allowing a modifier so that it refers to the current or the
Received:/Date: timestamp, seems a little adjustment.
