Hi,

As the list administrator, I thought I would tell you that Mailman does not 
strip HTML out of posted messages.  However, it may be that version 2.1 will 
have this feature.

Q. My users hate HTML in their email and for security reasons, I want to 
strip out all MIME attachments. How can I do this?

A. Mailman 2.1 will probably have this feature built-in, but for now you can 
use add-on tools such as demime or stripmime. More information on these tools 
can be found at:

(Stripmime) http://www.phred.org/~alex/stripmime.html.
(Demime) http://scifi.squawk.com/demime.html.

(http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/MM21/faq.html)

If the feature does make it into Mailmain, we'll be sure to upgrade and turn 
on the 'strip HTML' feature

Until then...

Jeff
CLUE President
