Technically, it might be possible. However, mangling e-mail addresses
would turn out that the 'mangled' mbox archives are meaningless, IMO.
(we can not import the UNIX mbox style text with such mangled e-mail
addresses to the mail clients)

For example:
1. Hide the raw text (current month only) which would be created
automatically
2. Create gzip compressed files every 6 hours and put them into the mail
archive directory (***/jakarta.apache.org/mail/), simultaneously delete
the older ones...

These above could be one of the approaching methods.
(But I am not sure HOW TO accomplish this ... infrastructure@ matter??)

These above are on the assumption that the spiders can not read the
gzip compressed files. Am i right or wrong??
