MIME will work with IETFHDR and FULLHDR, but not SHORTHDR. Prior to LISTSERV 1.8b, SHORTHDR was the default. In 1.8b, FULLHDR became the default, but those subscribers who subscribed before the installation of 1.8b still have SHORTHDR as their setting (assuming the list was taking the default). I don't understand your comment about not being able to see any headers with FULLHDR.
