I have a user that wants to download the raw archives of a list but this
archive it 65MB and her PC hangs every time she tries to download it.
Mine does too. I am trying to determine if there is a way I can run a a
command on the Mailman server which could zip the file, mail it to
myself and then send it to her. Or if there is another way of
downloading the file via the web I can tell her. Any suggestions or
ideas anyone?

Only if you have command line access to the server or another way to run commands on the server (e.g., set up a cron job, ask someone to do it for you). You can't do this via Mailman.

I have access to the server myself. Is there a command I can run to zip up the raw archive or is it generated on the fly? I simply want to somehow send this raw archive to this woman.

The raw archive is in the Mailman structure at archives/private/<listname>.mbox/<listname>.mbox

I found it. This lady tried loading a raw archive from her pc but because the archive was 65MB her pc would lock up. So she asked me if there was a better way of sending it to her or accessing it. I went to the server, zipped the file down to 13MB and used YouSentit.com to upload the file and sent it to her that way. Thanks!
