Kolab Mail archiving - software, methods, experiences?

Hallo everyone,

I am in need for mail archiving, that means that every incoming and 
outgoing mail has to be archived somewhere.

Now I am a bit overwhelmed with all the possibilities, and so I want to 
ask the list in which ways this has already been solved, which software 
(if so) is being used, and so on.

Several possibilities spring to my mind:

- postfix (main.cf) always_bcc=archiv at kolab.lokal.tld. Funny, but not 
unexpected (as each mail goes three times through postfix, if I am not 
mistaken) is that each mail goes threefold to the archive / gets 
tripled. Does anyone know an easy way around that?

- has anyone integrated Octant Opensources OMA Open Mail Archive 
<http://octant.org> into Kolab, and if so, which are the experiences?

- or perhaps Inovox-Mailarchivierungssoftware, 
<http://www.inovox.de/email-archivierung>, 
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/emailarchiving/>? Experiences?

- Or perhaps another way? Another software, proxy or more simple 
solution? In short, how is this solved elsewhere?

Best regards,
Christian
