I'm not sure it is the server (this time). The posts appear
mail-archive.org.
It can be a combination of a different mime encoding and our
over-aggressive and over-zealous mail server (Exchange) which removes
stuff sometimes too much.
I've corresponded with Dan a lot about this in the past many years... and it
seems that excess SPAM gets the list server mixed up. It ends up relaying
posts to some members, and not to others until he finally goes in and
unclogs whatever damage the SPAM has wrought.
