Summary: Multipart/mixed issues in archives

Initial Comment:
We are having problems with mailing lists that are not

being properly stripped down to text content in the

archives. When there is multipart/mixed, it doesn't

pull the multipart/alternative sections into their

appropriate text portions.

  For example, from content such as the following:

==============================================================================

>From ...

[...]

Content-class: urn:content-classes:message

MIME-Version: 1.0

Content-Type: multipart/mixed;

boundary=------------InterScan_NT_MIME_Boundary

[...]

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

--------------InterScan_NT_MIME_Boundary

Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

        boundary="----_=_NextPart_001_01C336A1.2C7564BC"

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

------_=_NextPart_001_01C336A1.2C7564BC

Content-Type: text/plain;

 charset=us-ascii

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Kevin has a pending checkin that addresses the

minss/maxss issue.

==============================================================================

As you can see, the actual content of the

multipart/alternative portion [text/plain and

text/html] were completely stripped out  instead of

being shown a plain text.

This is causing me real problems! Is there any known 

workarounds?

If I can't fix this I might have to use a different package as 

presently all my archives are useless!

This appears to be within:

def process(mlist, msg, msgdata=None):

at around line 276, but I saw no way of making it recurse

for multipart/[mixed|alternative] sub-MIME parts.
