Is it possible that you have a filter or registered proc that is
handling this request?

I did this on my notebook's 3.2+ad12 installation:
mkdir /tmp/pipermail
mkdir /tmp/test1
cd /tmp/pipermail
ln -s /tmp/test1
echo yo > /tmp/test1/index.html
cd /usr/local/web/localhost/www # this is my pageroot
ln -s /tmp/pipermail
I can load http://localhost/pipermail/test1/ and get "yo" with no error.
