Attachments (and v-cards) are normally bad form for lists. Majordomo
does handle the attachment, but  Hypermail (ancient as it is) does not.
More modern combinations might make a better job,  but I would not
recommend using this list to send attachments (not modem friendly for
one).

If there is a real need to exchange such things, probably the easiest solution
is to mount your document on a server (ftp, http, etc) somewhere, and
just send the list the URL.
