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.
