3 million messages ! Do you really need all of them actively online?
I can't speak for Patrik but I find it a lot easier to simply keep them
all "actively online" than to try to decide which ones to archive.
Before I used MailMate, I rotated some of my larger mailboxes annually
(and some more often) and it was a huge hassle (with ugly perl scripts)
to find anything.
If not, and you are just archiving them, with only the need for
infrequent access, you might want to consider something like
MailSteward.
https://mailsteward.com/
I've been using it for over a decade, and it has never lost an email.
That allows me to remove the email from my server, and keep
significantly less than 3 million "on hand."
(For three million messages, you'd want the full mySQL version.)
If MailMate weren't so good (or didn't exist), I'd probably be all over
this. :) This sounds great.
