I really like MH -- it pre-sorts my mail, stores my text file archives,
walks my dog, everything -- but leaving all of this stuff around in 
individual uncompressed files is starting to be a pain.  Is there a 
mail handler floating around that uses some kind of compressed archival 
storage (compressed mbox/ar/tar/whatever, zoo, zip, arc)?  Bonus points
for one that doesn't use the now-politically-incorrect LZW algorithm ..
