Is there any sort of add-on or companion program that would allow mailman users an easy way to share files without actually mailing them? (Or, better yet, strip them out of emails and store them for download off the web).

You should search the archives.  This subject has come up several 

times before.

The short answer is no.  The long answer is quite a bit more 

complex, and for many sites it may be completely impossible to implement this kind of functionality, even if the feature were technically available within Mailman.

If you want that sort of thing, you should use a file sharing P2P 

network, or a WebDAV server, etc....
