One idea is to keep the old archives using the broken separator, and
regenerate the good archives in some other directory, or with a
different prefix (say, instead of msg0234.php have it be named
mesg0234.php or msg0234.1.php, etc). That way the old URLs would
continue to work, and there wouldn't be a problem if the archives need
to be regenerated in the future.
OTOH it would be good to have a collection of messages by Message-Id
which could be used as a permalink. For example
http://archives.postgresql.org/by-id/20060718220947(dot)M957(at)ganymede(dot)hub(dot)org
or something like that.
