What Mailman version are you using?
Do you have problems with messages which are not multipart?
Beginning in Mailman 2.1.6, a single part text/plain message should be
coerced to Unicode, have headers and footers added as Unicode and then
coerced back to the character set of the list (or of the incoming
message if that fails).
Also, have you tried setting Non-digest options -> scrub_nondigest to
Yes? This may not be satisfactory for you, but if it is, it may help
with some of your other issues.
Also, if your Mailman version is 2.1.5 or older, upgrading may help.
