	If you turn off content filtering, then Mailman will not scrub 
any mail messages that come through to the list.  Assuming that the 
incoming message does not fall victim to the anti-spam settings, it 
will be accepted and sent on to the recipients, without being changed 
or modified (although it might be held for moderation).

	There may be problems with correct archiving of HTML messages, or 
with digests created from HTML messages, but these are separate 
issues.
