Obviously this requires further investigation.

They use a non-breaking space for the name anchors in the page but a
carriage return when the subject is blank. According to my extensive 30
seconds of testing, a non-breaking space in an anchor yields a clickable
underline. A carriage return does not. The deeply philosophical question is
"if white space does not have a space in it is it still white space?"

I think you should take this forward with the people who write mailman and
request an urgent fix. I normally find that the best way to start a
conversation with freetards is: "Unlike Linux, a standards compliant
platform such as Windows <insert whatever you want them to do here>." They
respond really well.
