I have not followed. A switch in ezmlm will set up the list to remove the following MIME parts:
application/excel application/rtf application/msword application/ms-tnef text/html text/rtf text/enriched text/x-vcard application/activemessage application/andrew-inset application/applefile application/atomicmail application/dca-rft application/dec-dx application/mac-binhex40 application/mac-compactpro application/macwriteii application/news-message-id application/news-transmission application/octet-stream application/oda application/pdf application/postscript application/powerpoint application/remote-printing application/slate application/wita application/wordperfect5.1 application/x-bcpio application/x-cdlink application/x-compress application/x-cpio application/x-csh application/x-director application/x-dvi application/x-hdf application/x-httpd-cgi application/x-koan application/x-latex application/x-mif application/x-netcdf application/x-stuffit application/x-sv4cpio application/x-sv4crc application/x-tar application/x-tcl application/x-tex application/x-texinfo application/x-troff application/x-troff-man application/x-troff-me application/x-troff-ms application/x-ustar application/x-wais-source audio/basic audio/mpeg audio/x-aiff audio/x-pn-realaudio audio/x-pn-realaudio audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin audio/x-realaudio audio/x-wav image/gif image/ief image/jpeg image/png image/tiff image/x-cmu-raster image/x-portable-anymap image/x-portable-bitmap image/x-portable-graymap image/x-portable-pixmap image/x-rgb image/x-xbitmap image/x-xpixmap image/x-xwindowdump text/x-sgml video/mpeg video/quicktime video/x-msvideo video/x-sgi-movie x-conference/x-cooltalk x-world/x-vrml Plese leave/add those you want in the list, then I will implement it. If a message contains _only_ the above types, the message gets rejected. If that is not enough, then please give me a 100% reliable filter (so no false positives ever), that would remove parts by given file extension. You can also think about: -- moderate the list -- each post from a nonsubscriber would get a confirmation request (but only for the first time from a given address).
