Hmmmm.... I guess that I haven't yet sat down and learned about ProcMail --
so that is the next thing that I should do....
Thanks!
I may be asking more questions about this soon....

Regarding this: suppose that I don't want to have to create a new
user account for each list I'm archiving? Is there any way that I
can have MHonArc choose different archives based on some header
value? I could then set up aliases to redirect all the archives
to one "archive" user, but then filter based on the "to" field...
What I do:
Inbound mail to be archived goes to an archiver account.
Procmail files that mail in per-list folders.
A cronjob runs periodically and calls list-customised MHonArc RC's
to archive each list. (Its actually a little more generic than
that as I use a standard RC which includes a small per-list custom
template which defines things like list owner email address etc).
Relevant files:

The template bit:
