I get the message in the header when part of the message is actually
signed, like I assume this one will be. The footers added by Mailman
will appear outside the GPG signed sections and will have sections
indicating the beginning and ending of the "encrypted or signed part".
What I'm seeing, and assume that you are as well, is that the header
does not indicate part of the message is signed, it will indicate good
signature found even though the attachment is the only signed part.
