Is it possible for footers to only be attached once? I am hosting a legal

Mailman 3 and the list has become more active as a result but in that

up at the bottom of subsequent emails.
Generally that's because once you reply, what appears as a footer becomes part of the message body. There may be a "plug-in" that will find and cut them out.

Is there any way to avoid this scenario?

Teach the users to edit their postings? (Top-posting is a major contributing factor in this, and while it's common in business IMHO it's still bad form for many other reasons.)

Do you -need- such a long footer? Can you simply include a link to the disclaimer elsewhere?

BTW, there's a different mailing list for mailman3, might want to ask about it there.

Later,
