That's what I thought of too, but there isn't any direct way to do this in
mailman.
That said, nothing prevents you from running the archiver code by hand
against the mailbox (something like grepmail todaysdate mbox | formail -s
scriptthatrunsarchiver)
Pipermail however does remain slow and inefficient (it can use huge amounts
of CPU and RAM), and this is known, no one is actively maintaining the code
and people who have real archiver needs are typically encouraged to use
monharc.
