I'd rather not use third party add-ons if possible. I have no control over the addition of the disclaimers. I have little control over the behaviour of my members re tendency to top post, not snip irrelevant posts etc. I merge the posts into a fudforum forum to act as a public archive, and sometime posting source. postmas...@nhs.uk may be willing to whitelist your (lists) domain, to exclude them from the disclaimers c.

It's not possible to configure this kind of thing via web interfaces, but if you can add fairly simple python script (which we can help you write) to the Mailman installation, it should be possible to strip these out. You also have to change either the global configuration or individual list configurations in a way that requires shell access. It is a dedicated server so I can theoretically get full access (though I do get rather nervous of destabilising things (I'm a doctor with an interest in IT rather than vice versa ?!?!?) ) I have managed to strip the disclaimers out from fudforum forum software which I use to archive and interface with the mailing list (it uses perl script to replace stuff) (You might argue with the sense of doing this with fudforum but it is what it is, and what users have requested!!!) So the rough and ready perl I have found works there is /\.*\n/s /\*\*\*(.*)\*\*\*/s /\-\-\-(.*)\-\-\-/s /\-\-\ .*532/s (these remove the un-necessary (for the forum) quoted email content, the two disclaimers, and the terminal mailing list sigblock respectively if it helps at all) Many thanks for any help Tim -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
