Agreed.  Some thoughts.

One is whether the mailing list is gatewayed to "Usenet" (really any external
NNTP server).  We already have settings for this.

In an mm3 world where we can have multiple system-wide configured and enabled
archivers, it probably makes sense to allow individual lists to opt-in or -out
of specific available archivers.  We've talked about this before, and it's
something I'm generally in favor of allowing.  The complication is that the
system may want to force individual lists to enable certain archivers.
E.g. if the site administrators want to keep a local maildir of all messages
to all mailing lists.

Cheers,
