Right.  Only my Exchange server has a pretty tight limit on the size
of the mailboxes, so I (think I) would like to archive things in my
Unix mailboxes.

But I see your point.

Ahhh... didn't know about mail-sources.

My Gnus *info* pages are all screwed up.  The build/install of Gnus
never seems to be able to generate them properly, so looking up docs
is kind of hit and miss.  It's much easier using *info* than Google.  ;-)


Thanks for the help.
