The only time I've heard of anything like this is when there are different 
character sets being used in some of the headers or footers (sometimes space 
characters), thus causing the different parts of the message to be put in 
different MIME body parts (as described in FAQ 4.39 at 
<http://wiki.list.org/x/84A9>).

You could try deleting all list-specific headers and footers and re-creating 
them, this time making sure that you don't put in any non-ASCII characters. 
  Or maybe you've got ASCII characters in there, but there are non-ASCII 
characters in the submitted message, such as accented characters in 
someone's name or signature?

Other than that, I have no idea how this kind of thing would happen.
