That would be because the footer-addition script would need to unpack the HTML mail (probably multipart with text/plain), add a footer to each part (parsing the vile HTML generated by email clients while it does it, to make sure it adds it in the right place), and then re-pack it... It's a whole lot less trouble just to bar anything except plain text email to lists. Roger
