That makes sense. I was interpreting that you can only use one mailbox for the OS version and as many mailboxes as you wanted with the Enterprise version. I guess it is really up to how your environment is since this would be great for compliancy sake (to just archive a journaling mailbox), however, according to the OP it looks like he wanted to also reduce the size of the information stores. Of course, we all know how much a journaling mailbox can take up on a store, so archiving it could certainly accomplish a portion of this too :)

That should be sufficient for the OP's needs.
