LISTSERV is simply shoving the banner text into the message body, rather than
adding it to the message package as a separate MIME part. This would not
resolve the S/MIME problem, but it would resolve some other banner-related
problems.

If S/MIME support is a critical requirement for your MLM, you may want to
look at Sympa <http://sympa.org/>.
