on my lists (Mailman 2.1, language: DE) I have the problem that:

- if the user send with charset="iso-8859-1" anything is fine

- if user sends with charset=us-ascii (some mailers do if there
  are no german umlauts) then the footer from the mailinglist
  gets attached and the Message is made Content-Type: multipart/mixed

Is there a way to tell mailman NOT to attach the footer with the
different charset but to write it in the normal message?

What would happen if you did include something in the footer with iso-8859-1-only characters in it? We would HAVE to attach the footer with the different charset then.

It's theoretically possible to search through the whole header/footer of each list to see if it is completely us-ascii, but this seems like a hack to me. Unless we do that, we have to assume that the footer is in the list charset (iso-8859-1) which means that us-ascii messages will get the footer attached as a MIME part.
