Apparently, I do too much text processing.
Na. I don't think so. Text processing seems to be one (of the many)

I'm up for helping process the archive if needed
with sed, perl or
some such.
I think we're thinking about two different layers of actions. Both
using their own form of RegEx like behavior.
It sounds like you're talking about processing / munging an mbox mail
archive.
I'm thinking about URL re-writing in the web server, be it on the fly or
