Depends on whether Content Filtering is on or off. If off, nothing in
pass_mime_types has any effect - everything is passed. If on, these
are necessary or the whole message will be filtered out.

There are issues with the archiver with respect to certain, complex
structures, but here are some points.

The entire message was in the .mbox file for the list. This means the
entire message was delivered to message subscribers and MIME format
digest subscribers. A scrubbed message is in the archive and was
delivered to plain digest subscribers.

Before giving up on the archive, look at the 'source' html of the
archive page and look at the 'source' of the scrubbed attachment(s).
I've seen scrubbed attachments that look like X is missing when viewed
in browser A and look like Y is missing when viewed in browser B, when
in fact, if you look at the actual file, everything is there.
