TEXT/PLAIN (24 lines)
When one uses the GETPOST command the output is sent as a mime message,
multipart/mixed.  If you want it sent as text/plain  you can add NOMIME
to the command.

When an INDEX subscriber sends his order to the speaial
listname-search-request address he is basically sending a GETPOST listname
command, so the output is send as a mime message.  The subscribers options
have no affect of this, the output is sent a mime even if the subscriber is
set NOMIME NOHTML.  Is there any way to get the output send a plain text?
I've tried putting NOMIME in the subject line, at the begining of an order
and at the end and it has no effect.

If there is now way to do it, I suggest that it be a feature of the next
revisions so that the user has a choice.  I have a number of subscribers
who are quite unhappy with the new, mime output.

Oh, almost forgot, when you send in an INDEX order to the special address,
you are send, in addition to the items ordered, a notice saying that the
items have been sent under separate cover.  Is there a way to turn that
off?
