Okay I ended up deleting them. Luckily since I was using those elm filters
it had all my messages saved into an mbox. From there I just did a:
cat archive | mhonarc -outdir /home/merrick/gtech-archives -- -
which worked *perfectly* to restore all the archives. =)
Now if I can just figure out a nice routine to rotate these monthly!
Something like this works :-)
DATE="`/usr/bin/date +%Y-%m`"
test -d "$DATE" || mkdir "$DATE"
exec mhonarc -outdir "$DATE"
