Mark, thank you very much for your help, which got me on the right track.
Indeed, the problem is that iPad photos, even when they are taken with a
portrait orientation, always carry Exif data that claim a landcape orientation.
Web browsers and many mail clients orient pictures according to the Exif
information. So, to make a long story short, if I remove the incorrect Exif
orientation-info from those pictures before sending them to Mailman, they
display correctly after scrubbing.
Thanks again,

Whatever is doing what you observe, it's not Mailman. It may be the web
browser that opens the link to the scrubbed attachment or something
else, but Mailman makes no changes whatsoever to the content of the
attachment. Mailman just decodes the (presumably base64 encoded)
content and saves it in a file and provides a URL to access the file.
