They'd have to be converted from .doc to a text format that is more readable.


b. Does the mailman listserver software automatically convert .doc ?...

No. Mailman uses the text-mode browser called "lynx" to make an attempt to convert HTML-formatted documents into a readable text format, if you configure it to convert HTML. It does not attempt to perform any other kind of conversion. This is something that you would need to do yourself.
