[K12OSN] Archiving Email

If you are archiving every incoming and outgoing email in your  
network, how are you doing it?  We've had too many instances that  
have required searching, and my current email backup scheme doesn't  
really lend itself to forensics.

Is it possible to pipe all emails (again, incoming and outgoing) into  
something like pipermail that mailman uses?  Ideally with searching  
and sorting abilities...

I'm currently using sendmail and dovecot with maildir folders.  I'm  
willing to change MTAs, but I'm really scratching my head to come up  
with the best way to accomplish the task.  I'm looking for any advice  
you can offer.

(No, I'm not looking for ethical or political responses, we're way  
past that...)

Thanks,
-Shawn
