I recently found out how to do something like this. I added the following line to my .emacs file so I could store all my outgoing mail in the file called /home/fredb/.record (setq mail-archive-file-name "/home/fredb/.record") When I want to view my old letters, I just hit "i" in RMAIL mode to let me run RMAIL on my .record file. I hope this helps.
