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:

  ftp://ftp.kanga.nu/pub/Kanga.Nu/WebArchives/MHonArc/variables.rc

The cronjoba:
