I don't think that mhonarc can handle log rolling on its own so you

rotatelogs.html) or logrotate (http://www.rt.com/man/logrotate.8.html).
I think two different things are getting mixed up here. MHonArc
archives are not logs, therefore, using log rotating software will
not work with mhonarc archives.
Sorry for any confusion. I used 'logs' above to refer to 'archived email'
not the archive files generated and maintained by mhonarc. For eg. I keep
my list email archived by month. The saved email for the current month is
stored in <list_name>-arc and previous months are stored by name
(june2003-arc, may2003-arc etc.). What I was trying to say is that
this 'rotation' of archived email can be done by software that
handles other logs. Creating date-based archives from mhonarc will
have to be done in your script (or by mharc which I have not used).
I hope this makes matters clearer.

Harshal
