	Yes, but there are known issues with the default archiving tool, 
and with doing things like adding footers to messages as the pass 
through the system.  These are problems inherent in any MIME/HTML 
e-mail solution, and are difficult or impossible to solve.

	See

	By default, Mailman will allow all MIME bodypart types to pass 
through the system unchanged.  All you have to do is avoid changing 
this aspect of the configuration.
