Extra period in attachment name problem

Bug Description

Having more than one period "." in the name of an
attachment causes mailman to disregard portions of the
file name, including the extention of the file. For example
a file named:
PRESIDENT'S NEWSLETTER NO. 2 - 2003-2004
ACADEMIC December.pdf

Results in a file attachment of:
PRESIDENT'S_NEWSLETTER_NO._2_-_2003-
2004_ACADEMIC

(the above is wraped by the textbox input).
Sending the same file attachment directly to a user does
not cause this problem. Sending it through mailman does
result in the change to the file name and extenton.
