I think that procmail can do that job. Here's an example:

## debian user (digest)
:0
* X-Loop: debian-user-digest-digest@lists.debian.org
{
        :0 c
        |formail +1 -ds cat >>Archives/deb-user

        :0
        |formail +1 -ds cat >>spool/deb-user.spool
}

(So the messages are stored in two files: deb-user and
deb-user.spool.)

Ps: have you noticed the crippled X-Loop header line? :-(
