[Mailman-Users] Permission Denied / Content Filtering

I've had a very hard time with my lists ever since my provider upgraded to 
2.1.2.  The most recent problem is that messages sent via Hotmail (and some 
other Web-based mail programs) come through like this:

/root/HJBt9Y: Permission denied

This only happens with Content Filtering turned on.  My content filtering 
settings are:

1.  Should Mailman filter?  Yes.  [when this is set to "no," people using 
Microsoft Exchange Server get messages as attachments only.]

2.  Remove messages with these attachments:  [blank]

3.  Remove messages that don't have these attachments:
                 multipart/mixed
                 multipart/alternative
                 text/html
                 text/plain
                 image/jpg
                 image/jpeg
                 image/gif
                 audio/basic
                 audio/mpg
                 audio/mpeg
                 audio/wav
                 video/asf
                 video/mpeg
                 video/mpg
                 video/quicktime

[some of these types still get stripped.  For example, mpgs don't make it 
through.]

4.  Should Mailman convert text/html parts to plain text?  Yes.  [Again, if 
this is no, Exchange Server people are getting all messages as attachments.]

5.  Action to take when messages match:  Forward to List Owner.


Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks.

Tim
