Never mind about this, further reading on their Glacier storage reveals 
it isn't suited to email storage, but could definitely be used with 
Dovecots new 'Archive' feature for *permanent* email archival...

So, the question is would the OSP support this? Mirroring/storing live 
email to the standard S3 filesystem, and storing permanent email 
archives to the Glacier system (maybe on some kind of scheduled nightly 
or weekly basis)?
