Isn't the solution to just insert the footer as a plain text message
part before sending? Something like:

------_=_NextPart_000_0149566.27838596
Content-Type: text/plain;
        charset="iso-8859-1"

Here's my groovy footer ....


The HTML content is in it's own message section, separated by a boundary
marker and with a different Content-Type. No need to fiddle with that.


Maybe I'm missing something, in which case I'd love to know how Lyris is
able to do this with no problem.



Kevin, this is *EXACTLY* what Mailman does currently.


The problem is that Outlook is buggy, and it doesn't know that text/plain message parts after the first part can/should be included inline with the message. We try to be as explicit as possible and even include a "Content-Disposition: inline" meta-header with the second text/plain part, but Outlook ignores this.

The footer always shows up as an attachment to be downloaded, and never in the body of the message.

It's a big problem we haven't figured out how to solve.

Ben
