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

text/x-sgml
video/mpeg
video/quicktime

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).
