Shorewall devel - Dec 2002 - HTML Posts -- Take 2

I had expected to be out of town this weekend so when I plans suddenly 
changed, I responded to a nudge from a list member and investigated means 
for stripping html from list posts. It turns out that MailMan 2.1 has this 
capability and since I run MailMan for my list server, that seemed like a 
good fit.

After a couple false starts trying to upgrade, I think that I have it 
running.

One thing to note. Mailman 2.0 used
"<list-name>-admin@shorewall.net" as
the envelope sender; Mailman 2.1 uses
"<list-name>-bounces@shorewall.net".
Update your mail sorting filters accordingly.

I currently have shorewall-users configured to drop text/html and allow all 
other mime types.

The shorewall-announce and shorewall-devel lists will only accept:

	multipart/mixed
	multipart/alternative
	text/plain

Standard headers for mailing lists are (even in RFC!)
List-Post: <mailto:shorewall-devel@shorewall.net>

So there shouldn''t be problems when using rfc compliant MUAs.

Yes -- you can use the ''List-Post:'' header for sorting. That
works except
for ''Announce'' lists where the right to post is severely
restricted; in
that case, a ''List-Post:'' header would be misleading and may
therefore be
omitted.
