MIME was designed to work with transports that are unaware of it, otherwise
it couldn't have been used until all the mailers on the internet had
been replaced. Majordomo just acts as a special case of a transport
when exploding a list and thus has no need to understand MIME content
in order to deliver it. Put MIME in, you'll get MIME out. What would
you expect it to do differently if it were aware of MIME?
