	If you want help in figuring out MIME formatting, you would be 
well advised to use resources more appropriate to that goal.  The 
MIME stuff that Mailman does is largely through libraries written by 
other people, and the Mailman developers don't really know much about 
it.  There are a very small number of Mailman developers who also 
monitor the mailman-users mailing list, but that's not likely to be 
of much benefit to you.

	If you Google for "MIME", the top hit that is returned points to 
<http://www.mhonarc.org/~ehood/MIME/>.  This is a useful resource, 
and includes pointers to USENET newsgroups that are likely to be of 
more help to you.

	Useful sites that are a bit further down the Google Hit Parade 
are <http://www.hunnysoft.com/mime/> and 
<http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/>.


	In the future, I would encourage you to do a bit more research 
with search engines like Google.
