I'm currently using Mailman 2.1.4 with Postfix on a Red Hat Enterprise Verison 3 workstation.

I would like to use the scrubber.patch to put attachments has a viewable link in the archives, "which is working", but I also want the attachment completely stripped from the email message. Here's my problem, if I enable content filtering to strip the attachments, scrubber never puts the attachment as a link in the archives. I thought it might be a Global Pipeline issue, so I changed the sequence of the global pipeline "as shown below", and put Scrubber as the first Handler to be processed and of course put this in "mm_cfg.py" and restarted Mailman. Still, the content filtering strips the attachments like I want, but scrubber never puts the attachment as a link in the archives.

Does the sequence of the Pipeline affect this process, is there a way to do what I want? Also is there documentation that shows a step by step process that a message goes through before delivery? I would love to see this, it would help me understand the process that Mailman does to prepare a message for delivery.

I manage 200 lists at Idaho State Univeristy, and Mailman is a very critical application for us, which makes this task very important and in a rush to get accomplished.

I would appreciate your help.

GLOBAL_PIPELINE = [ # These are the modules that do tasks common to all delivery paths. 'Scrubber', 'SpamDetect', 'Approve', 'Replybot', 'Moderate', 'Hold', 'MimeDel', 'Emergency', 'Tagger', 'CalcRecips', 'AvoidDuplicates', 'Cleanse', 'CookHeaders', # And now we send the message to the digest mbox file, and to the arch and # news queues. Runners will provide further processing of the message, # specific to those delivery paths. 'ToDigest', 'ToArchive', 'ToUsenet', # Now we'll do a few extra things specific to the member delivery # (outgoing) path, finally leaving the message in the outgoing queue. 'AfterDelivery', 'Acknowledge', 'ToOutgoing', ]
