MM> (I didn't get any answer back to my enquiring Email)2.1 should be much better here. First, the archiver will run out of a separate queue, and thus in a separate process. Second, you will probably be able to tune how frequently each separate qrunner process will run so you could make the archiver run once an hour if you want (this may be crude at first).
The one trick that I haven't thought about yet is the list locking issues. I'm pretty sure that the archiver can do most of its work without locking the list, but I have to double check on that. If the archiver holds the list lock for a long time, it'll block any processing of new messages to the list, although it won't block the uploading of processed messages to the smtpd or nttpd -- those qrunners never acquire the list lock.
