Bash can do this for you:
#!/bin/bash
bin/arch --wipe
for i in `seq 0 10`
do
bin/arch --start=$(( 1+$i*500 )) --end=$(( 500+$i*500 )) listname
done
...Assuming that bin/arch --wipe alone does what I think it does.
Also, if you have more than 5500 messages in the mbox file, you'll
need to adjust the second argument in the 'seq' upwards. And, of
course, replace 'listname' with the list name.
