Re: Server based archiving

[Chris Whisonant <chris.whisonant@xxxxxxxxx>]

What version are you on? If you're at 8.0.1, have you already implemented
document body and design compression?

compact -a will run against mail files that have an archive policy assigned
to the owner of the mail db. You shouldn't need the -B as the -a will also
reduce the space.
