You're right! It is something in the mail client that isn't showing the footers! Cause for sure they are there in the message source. (I should have checked.)
So, what is the use of footers if someone using OE defaults doesn't see
them? But how could it be a mailer issue, when the footers are showing up
just fine on my mail from Mailman-Users?
The main problem is that the character set of the header and footer might not match the character set of the body.
In this case, Mailman 2.1 will use MIME parts (flagged as 'inline' to tell the mail reader to display them along with the body) to indicate the correct character set of the header/footer; you CANNOT otherwise mix different character sets in a single mail body.
I'm guessing these messages have a Content-Type header like "test/plain; charset=utf-8" or something else that does not match the list's configured language.
There's really no good way that we've figured out to force Outlook Express to stop being buggy and display inline MIME parts as, well, inline.
If you can figure out a workaround (try constructing messages yourself by hand and emailing them to Outlook Express) please let us know!
