I have found that lha archives created on the Amiga will have a file date of 
15-Aug-80 even if they where created
five minutes ago. The lha on linux dosn't have this problem.

There is also the problem that the Amiga version of lha can only handle 
compression level -lh5-

Looking at the Amiganet nodelist, it looks like it's been crated by linux lha, 
with the compression set to -lh5-
and the mixed case in the file name (AmyList).
