I'm pretty sure the culprits are Mobile MUAs, not Desktop or Webmail Uis. -andy

All,
Hate to be That Guy on a listserv, but some folks are sending non-plaintext emails, which the listserv turns into an attachment (I get a body of "Empty Message" with something like email-1.eml attached). I don't bother to read those, and I suspect few who read text-only mailing lists do either.
You can typically configure an email client, even most webmail clients, to treat listservs as plaintext-only. Please consider taking the time to do that for those of us who will otherwise just ignore the message. I also don't know what it looks like on whatever the web presentation of the list is.
Thanks, Jonathan
