Somehow an "=" gets inserted into the URL (see snippet below), and the links returns "Private archive file not found".

If I recall correctly when "quoted=printable" encoding is used, the "=" at the end of the line by its self is an indication to the receiving MUA that the line is suppose to be unwrapped. I.e. remove the "=" from the end of the "...attachments/200" line and add the "81119..." line to the end.

However if the quoted=printable MIME encoding is broken, things like this will happen.

Will you please forward me one of the problem messages (as an attachment because I need to see the message source) and I will verify this.

If I remove the "=" from the URL, all is well.

*nod*  This is as I would expect.

Actually I bet that you are removing the "=" and adding the subsequent line to the end of the URL, which is what quoted=printable is suppose to do for you.

Can anyone shed any light on this, and how I might correct things so the URL appears correctly (without the "=") in the archive?

I think this is probably another small bug somewhere in Mailman in how it handles / folds lines of text. Format=flowed (my preference) suffers equally in older versions of Mailman.

81119/d1fa80ed/test.pdf

But this works:
