I'm not sure how to achieve this in MHonArc, though, which is what we're
using.  IIRC, MHonArc supports either the N-messages-per-page style
we're using now, *or* per-month pages.

Fortunately, in thread view it doesn't break threads that cross month
boundaries (again: IIRC), so we don't have a lot to lose either way.
