In my specific instance, no list member posts to the list. Its a one-way
list only. I use mime-mail to generate the HTML message each day then send
to the Mailman list. So this *could* be a solution.

In the past with HTML messages we've stuck text at the bottom but it has
been part of the HTML message itself. In this case, I need to have the
personalization of Mailman. There are other ways I can do it, such as have
mime-mail and PHP generate a unique email for each user, but I really want
to avoid going that for many reasons.
