No, the settings are the default as they come with the distro.
>From my Defaults.py:

# Are archives on or off by default?
DEFAULT_ARCHIVE = On

# Are archives public or private by default?
# 0=public, 1=private
DEFAULT_ARCHIVE_PRIVATE = 0

# ARCHIVE_TO_MBOX
#-1 - do not do any archiving
# 0 - do not archive to mbox, use builtin mailman html archiving only
# 1 - do not use builtin mailman html archiving, archive to mbox only
# 2 - archive to both mbox and builtin mailman html archiving.
#     See the settings below for PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER and
#     PRIVATE_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER which can be used to replace mailman's
#     builtin html archiving with an external archiver.  The flat mail
#     mbox file can be useful for searching, and is another way to
#     interface external archivers, etc.
ARCHIVE_TO_MBOX = 2

# 0 - yearly
# 1 - monthly
# 2 - quarterly
# 3 - weekly
# 4 - daily
DEFAULT_ARCHIVE_VOLUME_FREQUENCY = 1


None of these are overwritten in mm_cfg.py.
