Thank you for your advice below, this solves my problem but also creates a new problem.
The mobility of %(user_delivered_to)s is the issue. Is there something like an msg_body, where you can compile the html letter and insert %(user_delivered_to)s. That would obv be perfect.
No. There is no existing mechanism in Mailman to add replacements or insert text into HTML message bodies/parts.
Right now I have the issue of the msg_footer being inserted as an attachment, but I have found a solution for that on the internet. MIMEDefang... you obv know what I am talking about.
Perhaps you have seen the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/84A9> and the information linked from that about using MIMEDefang.
Msg_header does not work in MS office, but that won't work either because it will be at the top of the emailer. See attachment.
And will have the same issues as the 'attached' footer or worse will be treated by the MUA as the message body with the true message body treated as an attachment.
Please let me know what you think.
If putting your link with replacements in msg_footer along with the MIMEDefang solution documented at <http://stuff.mit.edu/~jik/software/mailman_mimedefang/> works for you, then you have a solution. If not, there's not much else you can do without actually modifying the Mailman/Handlers/Decorate.py handler to modify the HTML message body per recipient.
