In normal encrypted email usage (without appliances at both ends) the emails are encrypted at any point after creation. They are only decrypted when someone wants to look at a particular message. So encrypted archiving comes for free. This is actually a significant and helpful feature here. I don't see the point of giving this feature up and then working to create a secure archiving system to make up for it.
