I see the ones on the mailman-* lists as folded.  I see the ones from =

the exim lists (again Mailman 2.0beta6) as unfolded.  An MTA is playing =

silly games with the headers which is normally the sort of gratuitous =

fiddling that sendmail does... except the system that is playing games =

appears to be a postfix one (I expected better from Wietse).

I do agree that they *should* be folded by mailman when generated.

BTW Ron, any chance you could get rid of the gratuitous HTML =

multiparts.  [They bugger the archives apart from anything else]
