=head1 WHAT SHOULD GAH BE?

=over 4

=item	Archiving functionality for glist

	Gah should store glist mails in a archive for each list,
	through it's own command line utility and internal
	API. Any program should be able to use gah though,
	it should not just be restricted to glist.

=item	It should be able to save files to the archive

=item	It should be able to fetch files from the archive

=item	It should be able to expire messages in the archive

=item	It should be able to store non-text attachments
	to it's own space, so the attachements in the mails
	are replaced with an URL or path location to the files.
