[Mailman-Users] HTML table code broken via Mailman

[Lloyd Tennison]

Outlook and Outlook Express adds the translating, but most other email 
clients do not.  

As to Personalization:

Look at Non-Digest Options, the second option should be:

Should Mailman personalize each non-digest delivery? This is often useful for 
announce-only lists, but read the details  section for a discussion of 
important performance issues.
(Details for personalize)

No
Yes
Full Personalization

Full Personalization is preferred if you want to track, as that uses full 
VERP.

Note: Some hosts do not have that option enabled.  Many will enable it if you 
ask.  It is a simple configuration change that takes seconds to do.
