The list software does it's best to strip all HTML from the mail. This is hard since
people use incorrect HTML so there is no sure way to do this. The list is *supposed*
to reject all mail that it can't strip the HTML from. Certain people have a problem
sending non-HTML mail (Braindead AOL mailers for example have no way to do this). The
rest are clueless about how to turn this feature off.
I just looked thru the recent past set of messages in my inbox and only found one that
had the <x-flowed> attribute though the mailer incorrectly marked the message content
as text/plain. But I looked in the trash and my filters had dumped one Yahoo mail
that had gotten thru. Again, it is hard to remove HTML on this free service. It had
incorrect headers and listed it as multipart/alternative but did not have any
multiparts. Sigh. Other than rejecting everyone from yahoo.com (that would simplify
my life, they are most of the bad addresses that bounce) I don't have a good way of
blocking it, but I will work on it.
