Is there any way to have a footer message in an HTML email message? From
what I have read, the answer is no, but figured there might be a workaround.
I need to be able to send a personalized link in the footer message, which
Mailman does wonderfully, but the email is HTML. Any ideas?

Ha... I'm in the same boat really... I discouraged the client from sending
HTML emails, but they insisted. The email recipients actually prefer the
HTML vs plain text now, to my surprise. We use Mailman to send the daily
emails, but we do not use Mailman for list management (at least for this
list)

Hello,
I am confused myself, now.
I run two lists with important headers and footers, but no
personalization.
When a user sends an HTML message, I still receive the header and footer.
I thought the discussion in the past was about problems Outlook has in
displaying the attached footer.

How about doing something simply obvious, like forcing the sending
poster
That would certainly work, but the problem is that ordinary folks using
the mailing list would probably simply ignore that advice when they
post.

In my specific instance, no list member posts to the list. Its a one-way
