Subject: Q: How to make Majordomo look for approval where I what him to..

Hi!

I have a problem:
I am using Majordomo 1.94.1 on a Red Hat Linux System with Perl 5.003.
Now a customer of ours wants to use Majordomo to distribute HTML mail.
He wants to use the "Send Page..." Tool of Netscape Communicator 4.03.
He needs to utilize a moderated list for distribution, since it is a
information list.
What happens is, that HTML mials are sent by Netscape as Mime multipart and
Majordomo always bounces the mail back for approval.

What I need is a "perl hack" that makes Majordomo look for approval passwd
not only in the first line but in a specified amount of lines. Thats IMHO
the only
way to get Mime multipart through a moderated list.

Please tell me how to get accomplish that!

Here an example of what the HTML mail looks like
