Hi,
we're having a PGP encrypted mailing list on lists.aktivix.org and since
we upgraded to Enigmail 1.7 locally our messages on that list - and that
list only - are parsed wrong and displayed wrongly. Enigmail reports:
> Decrypted message (restored broken PGP email format probably caused
> by an old Exchange server, so that the result might not be perfect to
> read)
Indeed, looking at the source of the message as it arrives mailmain
seems to have post-processed it (note that "This is an OpenPGP/MIME
encrypted message (RFC 4880 and 3156)" appears twice):
*******************************************

**********************************************
So it seems mailman tries to extract the first part of the multipart
message and this causes Enigmail 1.7 being a bit too helpful, i.e.
parsing the message wrong. I have "Content-Filter" disabled and also
"Should Mailman collapse multipart/alternative to its first part
content?" so I wonder if there's anything else I can/should do to
rectify the situation?
Cheers,
