[Mailman-Users] Pipermail URL handling in archives

Hi,

I have a problem with some URLs being handled incorrectly.
Specifically URLs that are at the end of a sentence followed by a
period (full stop).   Example:

   To enroll visit this site: http://www.domain.tld/cgi-bin/enroll.pl.

Mailman/Pipermail converts that sentence like so:

  To enroll visit this site: <A
HREF="http://www.domain.tld/cgi-bin/enroll.pl.">http://www.domain.tld/cgi-bin/enroll.pl.</A>

The ending period (full stop) then invalidates the URL.

Is there any quick fix to 2.1.9 to resolve this?

Thanks,

-Jim P.
