I think some of the list mail is being sent in a peculiar fashion.
It may be how the list responds to mail sent to it. Looking at
the email headers I see some unusual header lines:
x-plaintext: Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative
...
Content-Type: text/plain
Which makes the following line show up at the beginning of
emails from the list:
[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
------------------------
I'm running mailman here, and it doesn't generate these headers:
x-plaintext:
My mailman server does generate a header like this:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
My mailman server seems to be user-friendly to all the subscribers.
I wonder if the audifans "x-plaintext" header is causing this?
