Mailing List Logs for ShadowRN

Ok, I've listened to some of the ideas tossed around, and I think I have
a solution that might work:

NERPS: Delete everything prior to the current project, as the old
one is finished and done with

SHADOWTK: Nothing is deleted. All logs are kept online. Possibly
replace older logs with the edited version, which will save
about 35 to 40 percent without compressing. I have to look
into how to replace files first.

PLOT-D: Delete everything older than three months. Face it,
anything discussed three months ago is old news. Newbies
don't need access to it.

SHADOWRN: Delete everything older than six months. Things
discussed that long ago aren't going to be looked up or
consulted except in very rare circumstances.

-----------------

Please take a look at this and let me know. If that works, I'll notify
the Lords of Hearn. I will recommend that they wait until March 1st
before removing the old files, so that anyone that wants can get them.
(As a side note, I personally keep personal archives of everything on
tape.)

Let me know.
