The HTML/NOHTML keywords do not work like that. They only work for altering
 the way LISTSERV creates Digests and Indexes, not for altering
 individual mailing list posts. LISTSERV does not alter the text of
 individual posts.

Extracted from the v1.8d on-line documentation
 "HTML/NOHTML
         Toggle the HTML function for digests and indexes on
         and off. New in 1.8d."
