Archivemail is a free software email archiving utility.[1][2][3] It is configurable to extract old mail from mbox, mh, or maildir mailboxes, and to archive the extracted mails into a compressed mbox file.[4]

It can be used to limit the age of emails in an email archive (e.g. to 180 days, or whatever the system administrator chooses).[5]
