Well ..., it makes sense to me that if a post is multipart mixed, and
the first sub part is text/plain, then this is a plain text post with
attachments, and we could add the list header/footer to the text/plain
part just as we do for single part, text/plain messages. I don't think
this would be hard to do, but here are the issues if I do this.

It would be done on the "trunk" for Mailman 2.2. You would have to get
that version of Mailman/Handlers/Decorate.py (just the one module)
from the sourceforge.net site and put it in your installation.

I'm not sure that this is "generally desireable". I think it is, but I
would first ask this list and maybe Mailman-developers@python.org if
anyone would have a problem with it.

Todd has already given a better answer than I could to the RPM question.

As far as it being worth it to upgrade to 2.1.6, there are a few
security issues in 2.1.5 that are fixed in 2.1.6, so yes, I think it's
worth it, but I would suggest trying to go all the way to 2.1.8 if
possible. But none of this will change the header/footer issue for
mail with attachments that go to the list.
