"Using an address + length format would cost one more byte of overhead than an address + magic_marker format"
Why? If the string length = magic_marker length, they would be the same, no? Depending on the charset, it could be the same or even better to use the address + length format...
i scan all mail to pdf files on my macbook as soon as I receive it, then whenever i have time i review the files and categorize them. works great mainly because i have an awesome scanner: epson workforce pro gt-s50 (http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Product.do?sku=B11B194011). seriously, i absolutely love the thing: led based so no lamp warm-up time, scans both sides at once, 75 page feeder never jams, mac image capture converts and saves each batch as a separate pdf. only minus is price: got mine for $300 from b&h... but it has to be the best money i ever spent. i am now down to a single folder of documents that i can't really throw out (school diplomas, transcripts, etc) and hope to keep it this way.

Hmmm, something does not compute here :-)
