Attachments can be anywhere from a few k to a couple of megabytes, and management doesn't want any email deleted, ever (we are an archival/educational/library government institution) so take a few megs per email x 150 users you suddenly have several hundred to 1G of email per mass message that I have to save, forever, to hard drive and tape.

First, you should make your no attachments policy known by sending a once/month message to the list from the owner/moderator. Second, restrict posting to your list only by members of the list, or better yet, require moderator approval for postings. Violators of the policy can then be dealt with while preserving the pure ASCII content of your distributions. Third, and probably the most important way to do this is to demime or stripmime all mail coming into your list. Attachments are really just text appended to the body of your messages, with some boundaries and headers added to tell mail user agents how to deal with the message. Removing anything that is not a pattern match for "Content-Type: text/plain" is a sure fire way to kill off any attachments the message may have had. Removing contents of a message body after "Begin [octal number] [filename]" will get rid of the rest of any possible attachments. Using a moderator and restricted posting policies, the third choice is a manual process. Without a moderator, you can automate some or all of this with add-ons. http://www.phred.org/~alex/stripmime.html I can't find a working link to demime right now.

Yes, but a lot more work, which kind of goes against the original reason for the creation of majordomo. :-) Here's an example for demime. Note that this strips attachments and HTML from both the list and the -request alias. # Test alias (run by majordomo) and template for new majordomo-controlled # mailing lists. # test-owner: user@example.com test-approval: test-owner test-digest-approval: test-owner owner-test-dist: test-owner owner-test-digest: test-owner owner-test: test-owner # test-request: "|/usr/local/majordomo/demime - |/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper majordomo -l test" # test-digest-request: "|/usr/local/majordomo/demime - |/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper majordomo -l test-digest" # test-dist: :include:/usr/local/majordomo/lists/test, "|/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper archive -f /home/system/test/test-archive -a -D", "|/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper digest -r -C -l test-digest test-digest-dist,nobody" # test: "|/usr/local/majordomo/demime '|/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper resend -l test -h mail.example.com test-dist,nobody'" # test-digest: test # test-digest-dist: :include:/usr/local/majordomo/lists/test-digest # > > >> > >> http://www.phred.org/~alex/stripmime.html > >> > > stripmime looks cool, I'll play around with it tomorrow, thanks. > > > > Thank Alex for writing it.
