Another vote for archivemail from me. I have a local patch to mine to add a feature
to delete a mailbox if, after archiving, it would be empty. Which reminds me that I
tried to get it upstream, which turned into trying to get a feature added to the
Python mailbox API, which was pretty damn difficult and I gave up trying to convince
the maintainer of my use-case. But I have the patch (both in Python library form and
as a monkeypatch in archivemail itself) if anyone wants it. Maybe one day I'll have
the time and inclination to try again with Python (it was the beginning of a long
road: it would have gone into Python 3, and archivemail needs a lot of other work to
get it working in Python 3 anyway)
