[Mailman-Users] HTML support in v2.0beta6

[Jean-Sebastien Morisset]

I switched to Mailman v2.0beta6 from Majordomo a few weeks ago. Everything
is working smoothly, except for one mailing list which sends out HTML
messages.

They show up fine on Outlook etc., but Mailman seems to change the
MIME/multipart encoding -- Mutt (and probably Pine too) shows 4 attachements
when there should be only two! i.e.:

--begin--
  I     1 <no description>         [multipa/alternativ, 7bit, 3.3K] 
  I     2 ÃÄ><no description>    [text/plain, 7bit, us-ascii, 0.9K] 
  I     3 ÀÄ><no description>         [multipa/related, 7bit, 2.1K] 
  I     4   ÀÄ><no description>   [text/html, 7bit, us-ascii, 2.0K]
--end--

Attachements #1 and #3 shouldn't be there! The content of #1 is identical
to #2, but #3 looks a little suspicious. Here's the content of #3:

--begin--
[-- Attachment #1 --]
[-- Type: text/html, Encoding: 7bit, Size: 2.0K --]

[-- text/html is unsupported  --]
--end--

The archiving doesn't work either. You can see a sample yourself at

Is this a known problem? I hope it's not a feature...

Thanks,
js.
