Well the MTA still does not deal with archival because it will need to 
be passed through to Yet Another MDA to handle the archival and 
management process.

For the pure archival of the input/output stream including duplicate 
deliveries and all spam always_bcc into YAMDA would work.

In my thinking Cyrus is responsible for the storage and management of 
email so archival would be a part of that process.
