get eMA from John ... (forget his last name). Do a search on Versiontracker - you'll find it under "eMA" or "eMailArchiver" or such. It's shareware and worth every cent. If you have FileMaker, you can use that version but there exists also a version which allows you to run it if you don't have FileMaker installed (like I do). You can set a time period to export, i.e. "only export if older than...". Remember to use it in "Test-Mode" (nothing in your database gets deleted), until you are sure this is for you the way to go, then you can set eMA to delete archived messages.
