Roger makes a valid point here. If all you really want is email archival, then DEVONThink isn’t the way to go, especially considering that option is only available in the most expensive version (http://www.devontechnologies.com/products/devonthink/comparison.html). I do however recommend it if you take advantage of the other features.
