As part of my never-ending efforts to prevent the sending of spam and
other malicious content over the jabber.org mailing lists, I have made 
a change to the list configuration to filter out messages with certain
kinds of attachments. Specifically, messages are now allowed to have
only the following kinds of attachments:

multipart/mixed
multipart/alternative
text/plain
application/pkcs7-signature
text/x-vcard

Messages with any other kind of attachment will be rejected. Content
that is text/html will be converted to text.

Are there any other content-types we want to allow for attachments?

BTW, this policy applies to the following lists:

council at jabber.org
jadmin at jabber.org
jdev at jabber.org
juser at jabber.org
members at jabber.org
standards-jig at jabber.org
xmppwg at jabber.org
jabberd at jabberstudio.org
