Different thread, but I posted the info earlier this month! (see below)
I use demime 0.97c, which the "stable" link below points to. I still
use taboo filters, but only to silence jerks and keep messages like
"please unzubscribe me" from reaching my lists. Note that I use Mj2,
but the method of installing demime works for any email list or even
a private email account: Just define an alias that pipes the incoming
msg through demime and on to your mailbox or Majordomo script.
One last thing: Using the configuration file, you can get demime
to delete those damn advertising footers that freebie ISPs put in!
(or any other arbitrary block of text you want to zap, like fronters
and footers from quoted posts).
