Not really.  I can't get at the archive server unless I'm at the office,
so mail that I'm more likely to need to refer to needs to stay where it
is.  Without creating another folder just for that, a cron job would be
suboptimal.

Even at that, it's really worth engineering and testing a solution for
something that takes about 5 minutes per year.
