This is exactly the functionality I'm looking for! Does anyone have an
idea where to find this module, or how this can be done otherwise?


Dunno about the WebDAV part, but the rest can be done by simply enabling 
attachment stripping for non-digest messages.

Starting with Mailman 2.1.6, there is a scrub_nondigest setting in the
Non-digest options section of the web admin interface.

This will cause non text/plain parts of the message to be removed and
replaced by links to the archive where they are stored. You don't have
a choice of where the "attachments" are stored, but otherwise this is
the feature.

[Mailman-Users] stripping attachments and sending the URL

[Thijs Braem]

Hello everybody,

On http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/3844 (May 1st, 2000) I read the
following:

"For example, there is a project contributor who has implemented a MIME
attachment scanner module which can be dropped into the pipeline. This
module can strip attachments from the message, post the attachments to
an external archive (either the file system or a WebDAV server) and then
rewrite the outgoing message to include a URL to the attachment instead
of the attachment text."

This is exactly the functionality I'm looking for! Does anyone have an
idea where to find this module, or how this can be done otherwise?

Thanks in advance,
