I can see that I was insufficiently clear. What I posted above is the
sections of the reject message that Mailman sent me. The
'message/rfc822' appears to be Mailman's encapsulation of the original
message. From your explanation I see that the problem was that the
original message was 'multipart/related'.

Excellent. This is what I want. Thanks.
