Summary: HyperArch.py allows empty subjects

Initial Comment:
Messages coming into HyperArch.py with a subject of
"Re: " (or similar) come out having no subject at all.
This is Bad(tm), because the HREF links in the HTML
archives are keyed to the subject, and if there's no
subject, there's no link.

Here's a simple fix, against the 2.1.3 source.
