This is pretty much my situation. And I have mail going back to 1996. Professionally, I manage global email for a company using Lotus Notes, where a penurious 200Mb mail limit is enforced. IBM (Lotus) makes this bearable by including configurable automatic archiving in the Notes client. The archives are easily accessible (and visually distinguishable) from the regular mail file. The main drawback is that searches can only be performed on one database at a time. I'm happy with the 2 GB limit, but for others, some similar archiving solution combined with Foxtrot searching would probably be better.
