I was a bit incorrect in this paragraph, I want to move all old messages from one _mbox_ to another (compressed) one. Threads are not neccesary, because it's third level storage (I'm not going to look there often). Do you know any tools working on mboxes directly? Locking would be no problem, because there is no delivery to this folders, and I won't try to read these mails during the moving. Thanks Nicolas
