I had to do some undoing to get this to work, but I ended up getting it.
First I had to modify my majordomo.cf $global_taboo_headers to allow the attachment.
Second, I had to set my mail user agent (Netscape Communicator) to not wrap messages at 72 characters.
Third, I set my mail reader to view all headers.
Forth, I attached an 8K zip file to a message to my test list.  Even though I had made changes to my majordomo.cf, the message still bounced to the owner-list address/alias.
The message enclosed in @@@@@@@@@@ was the original bounce, and the message enclosed in &&&&&&&&&&&& is what I forwarded back into the test address.

This is only a test to see if I can attach a file (smaller than 40k).

Notice, when forwarding the message with the attachment back into the list address, I 
made the "Approved: test.password" the first line, purged all Received: lines, removed
the blank line between boundry= and "This is a multi-", and I removed the old Approved: 
line deeper down in the message so that the first line following the first blank space 
was actually message content.
