As I recall the original post, archives aren't enabled sitewide, and I
don't think the 2.1.6 scrubbing of regular deliveries is an issue only.
The only issue was scrubbed attachments in digests.
If you want to experiment, I think you could add
return(msg)
immediately after
def process(mlist, msg, msgdata=None):
in Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py. This might actually work for MIME
format digests, but as Tokio indicates above and I said earlier
