And for more general advice in regards to email management, TNA released this:

Dear all,

I am currently looking into born digital archives, and am very keen to hear about experiences/knowledge anyone might have with archiving emails.  If anyone out there has been working on this (either at research stage or in practice), please get in touch.  Much appreciated.

Regards,
Wendy
