I assume the compressed mailbox would be in unix format, and not work with the web mailer I use (www.fastmail.fm). I used to be subscribed to the mailing list but the constant flow of messages is a bit distracting. I subscribed to the mailing list again today, and this time set it automatically direct all messages from the mailing list to a separate folder. Although I dont think this web mailer let's you automatically delete messages older than a few days. Which will cause it fill up... Thanks!
