+Archmbox is a simple email archiver written in perl:
+- parses one or more mailboxes
+- selects some or all messages
+- performs specific actions on the selected messages.
+At this time archmbox supports mbox and mbx mailbox formats.
+
+Three different modes are available:
+- list mode, which is useful to list all selected messages
+- kill mode, if messages should be deleted from the mailbox(es)
+- archive mode, to archive the selected messages in a different mailbox
+
+Messages selection is based upon:
+- date criteria
+- absolute date
+- days offset
+
+It is also possible to refine the selection using regex on the header fields.
+The archive mailbox can be saved in gz or bz2 compressed format as well.
