No. Access parameter should only be used in order to control access but 
not to control if messages are to be archived or not. But you can use 
the existing web_archive "quota" parameter. If you set it to 0 no 
message will be archived.

You can also define a robot default archive quota for all lists. List 
owners receive a notification when disk quota exceeded. At any time they 
can download zip of several mounths archives and remove them from the 
server.

Hope this help.
