I am curious about this too, as I would like to set up a specific list that allows MIME and html, specifically so that photographic information and drawings could be easily conveyed. Anyone subscribing to this list would have the expectation that they would receive these types of messages. It would be desirable to be able to view messages and attachements in the web mail archive.
Not a problem.
I am a big fan of plain text messages, but I do think that there is an important need for something like a mail list and archiver that handles messages with attachments well.
Use an external archiver that properly handles MIME. I'm a fan of (and use) MHonArc:
As you can see here it handles such archiving quite nicely:
