Thanks, Giorgos! I assume the compressed mailbox would be in unix
format, and not work with the web mailer I use (www.fastmail.fm).
I used to be subscribed to the mailing list but the constant flow
of messages is a bit distracting. I subscribed to the mailing list
again today, and this time set it automatically direct all
messages from the mailing list to a separate folder. Although I
dont think this web mailer let's you automatically delete messages
older than a few days. Which will cause it fill up...
Thanks!
