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,

The poster said that this the Mailman list is a legal list, and
legal firms have a habit of putting lots of "legalese" in the
footer of mail messages. [Note that I nave removed the footer
from Carl's reply.]
