Initial Comment: The archives seem to have trouble with Windows-1252 encoding. This is from the headers of such message:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Subject: [F1] =?Windows-1252?Q? RE=3A_=5BF1=5D_=5BF1=5D_Sp=E1_fyrir_Monako?=
The Subject appears like this in the archives instead of being decoded.
Don't know if this is a bug with the email client or Mailman but thought I'd mention it, there seems to be a lot of these things acording to a Google search for Mailman and Windows-1252.

The bug is in HyperArch.py line 158. Check out the patch attached to bug report #449677 at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=449677&group_id=103&atid=100103 -- actually, I just realized I should upload it to the Patches section as well, and will do so now.
The problem is that HyperArch.py assumes charsets are in the form \w+ (a-z A-Z 0-9 _ only). But they can and do have other characters like -, as you've seen. The patch is to replace "\w+" in HyperArch line 158 with: ".+?"
This will make it match any character non-greedily up to the next ", without going past it. Hope this helps!
