No, believe me, it *IS* sending 250 K messages. Look harder for some
option, or change your mailer. Don't send any more messages to the
list with it, because every message causes Thaths' server to send out
approximately 250 MB of data (if my calclulations are right)!!

That's because of <broken> majordomo adding the list footer as another
part in the multipart/alternative message, and your mailer is viewing
the last part in the multipart which happens to be a plain footer
without any other text.

Personally, I think my choice in the mostest-superlative-computer wars has to
be the HP-48 series of calculators. They'll run almost anything. And if they
can't, while I'll just plug a Linux box into the serial port and load up the
HP-48 VT-100 emulator.
