Hello,<br><br>I'm archiving mail to mbox files using the archive rules in MS. I was<br>wondering if anyone knows of software that will move and compress the<br>archived mail to conserve disk space? Any advice is welcome.<br>

You can do whatever you want with similar commands. No need for extra software. I'm sure others will post more advanced examples, I just wrote a line from memory.
