There are no HTML parts left after filtering because text/html is not in pass_mime_types. >What does the second part mean? How do you configure your site to allow these >conversions?

It means the HTML to plain text conversion is done by a command set by the Mailman site administrator. The default command is HTML_TO_PLAIN_TEXT_COMMAND = '/usr/bin/lynx -dump %(filename)s' which may not work on all systems. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
