Not really.. attachments= doesn't affect what people SEND.. only what
gets to the list... and to subscribers.. and I'm of a mind that people are
responsible for their own subscriptions, when they can be.

I'd certainly default the list to no attachments, and language=nohtml .. but
that, again,wouldn't affect what people send to the list, except under
attachments=no instead of no,filter where posts with attachments would be
rejected completely instead of just the attachments being stripped .. only
how posts are recieved.

Never use that except as a marker with NOMAIL for subscriptions that are
bouncing.  If a subscriber is violating list rules.. they either go to
REVIEW.. or get Nuked.  NOPOST just means they'd bypass the list and
send responses to list posts via private email to list subscribers.
