The only way to work around that is for pipermail to use a cgi program which would send the correct mime type when you download a file.
What programming language would be appropriate here? And how much lines approximately would such program take?
If you are serious about taking on this issue. The best place to go is to check out the mailman CVS at: http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/
Mailman (and Pipermail) are written in Python. I have no idea how many lines this would take, but it shouldn't be all that hard.
Please note, as policy I only use binary packages in the Debian stable tree. So even if your patch gets approved I won't see it until the next Debian goes stable. That would be 'etch' BTW.
