It IMPLIES that there are mulitple parts, one of which can be 
text/html.  The filter is picking up the message as HTML, where the next 
part could be a .zip file (UUEcoded) and this is why the message is 
being dumped.  It was not dumped because it was HTML.

Sending attachments to a mailing list is also a big no-no.  Send a text 
message, put the attachment somewhere where folks can get it and then 
post the message with URL.
