Shouldn't Mailman's reports be sent using the Multipart/Report MIME
content-type defined by RFC 1892 rather than Multipart/Mixed?  It
seems more appropriate.

Quoting from section 1 of RFC 1892:

  1. The Multipart/Report MIME content-type

  The Multipart/Report MIME content-type is a general "family" or
  "container" type for electronic mail reports of any kind. Although
  this memo defines only the use of the Multipart/Report content-type
  with respect to delivery status reports, mail processing programs
  will benefit if a single content-type is used to for all kinds of
  reports.
