I tend to collect various source from Usenet and, ala vnews,
"archive" the source postings in mail folders.  Building the
source then requires saving off each posting in a separate
file, stripping some text off the top and unsharing each file.
I do this manually and was hoping to save some key strokes...

Can anyone think of a way for mush to save the first n messages
into "folders" with some unique *sequential* names (ex. the
first 7 characters of the subject line).  (or maybe someone
will enlighten me on some other common way to build net source
or some utility that everybody else uses)
