From the overview:
"Apart from being designed to handle large volumes of mail accumulated over a long time, Archiveopteryx keeps the future in mind by storing only the canonical form of each message in the database, correcting common syntax errors at delivery."
I'm not sure what exactly this means, but it makes me a little nervous. One person's 'canonicalisation' is another person's 'corruption'. Can anybody shed some light on the subject?
