I'm not sure what you mean. You can archive to a 'shared' folder or
into an MBOX to be processed by something which rotates content.
Trapping all the email in postfix and using a bcc would either push the
bcc'd email to another mail handler of back into cyrus in some other
mailbox.
Which is doable but just seems clunky.
For the pure archival of the input/output stream including duplicate
deliveries and all spam always_bcc into YAMDA would work.
always_bcc and delayed expunge work for us.
This could be the answer. I tried using always_bcc for another use and
found that it had some quirks with cyrus so I have avoided it since then
but it may be worth a revisit.
In my thinking Cyrus is responsible for the storage and management of
email so archival would be a part of that process.
It has to be the MTAs responsibility as Cyrus very possibly does not
see *sent* mail; or messages which are somehow otherwise routed.
True enough but an always_bcc into the Sent folder would solve that problem.
