[Mailman-Users] Mailman 2.1.2 Multipart/mixed issues in Pipermail archives...

Sat Jun 21 15:55:18 CEST 2003

Good Morning,

  I couldn't find a bug report on this nor did I find a solution in the
  archives, but I somtimes don't do proper searches. I did see
  references to similar issues on the developers list, but nothing with
  regards to the archives nor a solution.

  We are having problems with mailing lists that are not being properly
  stripped down to text content in the archives. When there is
  multipart/mixed, it doesn't pull the multipart/alternative sections
  into their appropriate text portions.

  For example, from content such as the following:

==============================================================================
>From ...
[...]
Content-class: urn:content-classes:message
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=------------InterScan_NT_MIME_Boundary
[...]

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

--------------InterScan_NT_MIME_Boundary
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
        boundary="----_=_NextPart_001_01C336A1.2C7564BC"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

------_=_NextPart_001_01C336A1.2C7564BC
Content-Type: text/plain;
 charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Kevin has a pending checkin that addresses the minss/maxss issue.

  As you can see, the actual content of the multipart/alternative
  portion [text/plain and text/html] were completely stripped out
  instead of being shown a plain text.

Ciao,
