"Mail Archiver sets out to help you with the storage of emails."

I've been using Apple Mail for about 6 years. It has done a fine job of storing my email. Spotlight does a fine job of finding messages when I need to. Not sure what Mail Archiver means by "cleaning your email" but I'm sure I don't need it. I've got less than 1GB of sent/saved/inbox/everything else email, so it's not like I need to reclaim that space considering I have 1.75TB of local storage.

What does this do that Mail doesn't already do? Or, is it really necessary?

20MB download seems a bit big too... This wouldn't be a RealBasic app would it?
