Schedule Archiving:
MailSteward can be set to automatically schedule an archive of recent email. If you click on the Schedule button in the Settings window (shown below), the Scheduling window will come up: 
Archives can be scheduled either by days of the week, or by months and days of the month. They can be scheduled for any specific time of day, or every so many hours. After setting the scheduling options, clicking on the Schedule button will put an entry into your crontab file, which will tell the operating system to run MailSteward at the specified time and dates. MailSteward will then automatically archive email beginning on the date of the most recent email in the database file. As always, any duplicates will be skipped. The scheduling options can be changed at any time. Changing the options will replace the MailSteward entry in the crontab file. Clicking on the Remove Schedule button will delete the existing MailSteward schedule from the crontab. The crontab is a standard UNIX facility for scheduling applications. An excellent utility for viewing and updating the crontab is CronniX.
