Validation could be useful, but the more important issue is to have Mailman completely encapsulate signed/encrypted messages and then add whatever additional MIME bodyparts may be necessary to complete the other parts of the work it has been configured to do.

This is true for DKIM, PGP/MIME, and S/MIME alike. And any other form of signed and/or encrypted message.

Don't change anything at all in any of the signed/encrypted part, just treat it as an opaque object and encapsulate the whole thing.

It sounded like that is what Mailman already did and that by doing so broke the signature. I will have to go back and re-read if it is possible to graft the existing MIME tree in to another larger MIME tree with out invalidating it.
