I use the web configuration of mailman. It is set up with convert_html_to_plaintext enabled. Recent email via Hotmail has been coming in with no body, even though the original email has text. The text is present, and although ugly, the code looks average for HTML mail. The actual original email content (without headers) is pasted below. No text is passed through Mailman.

Can I assume that you mean messages like <http://five.pairlist.net/pipermail/ coco/2005-January/012348.html>? In this case, what we need to do is to see the original, unedited, version of the message as it was submitted to Mailman, so that we can try to figure out what went wrong and why it was stripped to be "blank" but then submitted to the system. This may require that someone subscribe to Hotmail and send some test messages, both directly to another account as well as to the mailing list, so that we can see both the edited and the unedited versions of the message. Another problem is that this issue may be specific to the configurations of particular people using Hotmail, and it may be difficult to find out what options they have set/changed which result in this kind of behaviour. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=1108814&group_id=103
