I've never tried it, but might you be able to use a companion digest
list to size the archive files (even if the digest list was null or just

If a web viewable archive is a reasonable alternative,
you might want to check into setting up Wilma for
your lists. See ftp://hpc.uh.edu/pub/wilma/ or
ftp://sol.ccsf.cc.ca.us/majordomo-contrib/
