Well personally I don't archive my lists, but it ought to be a case of
making you mylist-list alias look a bit like this:

test-outgoing: :include:/usr/local/Lists/mylist,
          "| /tools/majordomo/wrapper archive2.pl -a  -m
           -f /usr/local/mail/archive/mylist/mylist.archive"

Make sure you have the right permissions on all the files involved.  This is
all in the NEWLIST documentation that should had come with majordomo btw. :)
