Are you suggesting that it should undo MIME when someone sends a MIME-encoded
message?  What should it do with the parts?

The trailer is already added as just plain text if the message was plain
text; the MIME magic only happens if the original message was MIME.

Let's just disallow anything but text/plain on the mailing lists; that way
nobody with broken MIME mail readers will get inconvenienced.
