Summary: attachment appears in archive with extension changed to .exe

Initial Comment:
I posted a message with an attached pdf document, which
arrived intact to listmembers. But the link in the
archived version appears with a somewhat mangled name
and the extension .exe (which confuses browsers).

The link points to the intact pdf file.

>From the way the name was mangled, I suspect that the
problem is caused by a space in the filename of the
attachment. The bottom of the archived message looks
like this:
