It's got some dependencies on some stuff I need to weed out before it is
easy for someone-not-me to use. It's also not particularly well suited
to Chris' requirement, which includes preserving the source tree shape
in the archiving process.
I suspect Chris may need to roll his own. I'd imagine something like:
find message paths using mairix \
| move message files sideways, making sure there's no conflicts
