I saw this thread from a 2003 email, but there was no follow-up to it.
We are having similar problem with mailman 2.1.6 version. Exchange users receive their email "body as attachment". Other email clients are fine.
The list has content filter turned off.
Anyone knows how to configure the list correctly so the message will actually show up for exchange users not as an attachment?
Thanks!
Susan
|I'm having a terrible time with the 2.1.2 upgrade.
|Ever since the upgrade, anyone using Microsoft Exchange Server receives |messages as an attachment. So, using the new Content Filtering feature, I |set filtering to Yes and instructed Mailman to convert text/html parts to |plain text. This seemed to work, but then no one could send attachments.
|So, within the area marked "Remove message attachments that don't have a |matching content type." I added:
|multipart/mixed |multipart/alternative |text/plain | |Didn't help. So, I added:
|image
|Didn't help. Still can't add images.
|Finally, I added:
|image/jpeg |image/jpg |image/gif | |. . . but we still can't add images. I've attached a screen shot of my |resulting Content Filtering page.
|This is a list for alumni of a college singing group. Most messages don't |contain images, but occasionally people pass around old photos.
|Can anyone help?
|Thanks.

Do you have a msg_header and/or msg_footer defined for the list?

Hey Mark,
Sorry to take some time to get to this. It just so happened that our majordomo converting script left a blank line in the footer by default, which caused the problem for exchange users. Removing that line and turning off content filter fix the problem.
Thanks!
