I'm getting confused. To clarify, in Mailman 2.1.8 content filtering terms: we are 'filtering the content' , we are not 'removing message attachments that have a matching content type' we are 'removing message attachments that don't match multipart/mixed, multipart/alternative or text/plain', we are removing message attachments that match exe, bat, cmd, com,pif,scr,vbs,cpl ', we are 'collapsing multipart/alternative to its first part content', we are converting text/html parts to plain text.
is that solution 2? By the way I still don't know how to configure solution 1. thanks for your time David > -----Original Message----- > From: Brad Knowles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 11 December 2007 14:29 > To: David Beaumont; 'Brad Knowles'; 'Mark Sapiro'; > mailman-users@python.org > Subject: RE: [Mailman-Users] forwarding messages from one > list to another not asattachments > > On 12/11/07, David Beaumont wrote: > > > I should have added that not only are the original messages plain > > text but the list is configured to convert text/html parts > to plain text. > > Plain text or not for the main message body, you may still > have other bodyparts that are in other MIME formats, and you > could potentially be stripping them, or you could allow them > through.
