This arrived here (read in Kmail) as three inline attachments - is that intentional? It's a bit clunky to read compared to a simple message text that can be quickly scanned through.
Were they inlined or attachments? I'll check the settings. I was asked to make announce available as MIME. That shouldn't have changed the main list's copy from plain text, but it could have.
Did this happen to anyone else (i.e. embedded messages appearing as attachments not as message text?)
Inline - assuming I am using the correct terminology. The messages appeared as three icons within the body of the message not as attachments at the end.
This is what I received:

Clicking the icon opens the message (in Kwrite) without any dialogue about what to open it with so presumably the MIME component is being recognised.
Is there a bug in this mailman version causing these strange effects?
