Summary: Mailman strips format=flowed from Content-Type header

Initial Comment:
It seems that Mailman strips the format=flowed 
argument from the Content-Type: text/plain header 
when delivering incoming e-mails to subscribers.

I've browsed the mailman source code a bit and I found 
some suspicious code 
in /trunk/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Decorate.py. If the 
list admin specifies a header or footer to be added to 
outgoing messages, then the content-type header is zapped 
and then regenerated from just the charset info, i.e. the 
format=flowed parameter is lost.
