Cameron, if it was only attachments/HTML mailed to your list address that
you were concerned about, the following might be an alternative, if your perl
and majordomo are as back-level as mine...
Demime requires several things, like perl5.005+ and some 'lib' pl's.
I'll research that when I get there, for my new majordomo machine.
I use stripmime.pl, written by alex@phred.org
If you don't want attachments/HTML going to your LIST, in your /etc/aliases
pipe
listname:"|/usr/local/bin/stripmime.pl | /home/majordomo/wrapper resend
-l listname -h majordomo.srv.ualberta.ca listname-outgoing"
listname-outgoing::include:/usr/local/mail/lists/listname,
If you don't want attachments/HTML going to your ARCHIVES,
"|/usr/local/bin/stripmime.pl |/home/majordomo/wrapper archive2.pl -a -m -f
/usr/local/mail/archives/listname/listname.archive",
If you don't want attachments/HTML going to your DIGEST,
"|/usr/local/bin/stripmime.pl | /home/majordomo/wrapper digest -r -C -l
listname-digest listname-digest-outgoing",
The nice thing, no compiling, shBuilds, etc. Just copy it to your favourite
"bin", make it at least 755, and paste it into your aliases as above.
This does not "cure" the HTML/multipart/alternative/blabla/RichText/AOL6
commands addressed to majordomo.
You might have more spare time than I, to try a combination of piping all
messages through procmail, in turn, piping through stripmime, in turn,
piping to majordomo-real.
