Check the (and the default for)

LANGUAGE= 
 

Language= NOHTML: This setting allows you to specify that LISTSERV strip any HTML attachments from postings (while retaining HTML tags sent in the body of plain text messages). You specify either Language= NOHTML or Language= idiom,NOHTML to enable this feature.


The actual function of this setting is to remove the attachment that contains the HTML mail from the message. It does not remove HTML tags from plain text messages. This means that setting this option will not suppress HTML in messages sent from (for instance) Eudora Pro 3.x (since Eudora Pro 3.x does not send the HTML message as a MIME attachment with a plain text alternative). 

In 1.8e and following, if an HTML message does not contain a plain text alternative, and Language= NoHTML is set, the message will be rejected.  This is a change from the behavior in 1.8d, which would allow such messages through.
