There are two possibilities. Posibility one is you are looking at your
sent message or a Cc: or Bcc: that you sent to yourself.
Possibility two is that the list is actually sending the post out as
received from you, but it is multipart/alternative with a text/plain
part and a text/html part and those users who don't see the formatting
have their MUAs set to display the text/plain alternative or have MUAs
that don't recognize MIME email.

The controls are under Content filtering (Is that not obvious?). The
simplest thing, especially if this is an announce list and you do all
the posting, is to set filter_content to No. Then Mailman will send
the post as received with only the possible addition of msg_header and
msg_footer if any.
If your list is already set this way, then the issue is probably
possibility two above.
