I don't use a TBird extension but I do use a similar method to get the desired result. On the IMAP server, I run a combination of a cron task and mhonarc. It keeps my IMAPS folders within reasonable limits but the archiving is done in HTML, not mbox. i.e. I run a similar task to the DCGLUG archive itself. > I use IMAPS, I currently have about 100Mb of mail..
