If there is a website associated with the mailing list, you could move the 
information that is currently contained in the footer to a dedicted page on 
that website and shorten the footer to a one-line reference, such as "Mailing 
list terms and conditions: see [insert link to website]". It would not 
eliminate the multiple footers but at least keep that tail short.

Also, if users create ever long messages by keeping whole threads attached to 
their replies, it suggests that there is insufficient understanding of the 
functionality of modern email softwware, which can show related messages 
grouped into threads. This is, of course, an organisational/educationl issue, 
not a technical one. (I would suggest that in the face of apparent problems - 
in general, not just with mailing lists - it is often more effective to develop 
organisational solutions rather than relying on technical fixes).
