When one sends an email from Gmail, it's encoded depending on the content of
the mail.

> arvizturo tukorfurogep
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

> árvizturo tükörfúrógép
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

> árvíztűrő tükörfúrógép
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-2
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

In case of opensuse-hu the footer is the following plaintext:

[footer]
-- 
To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-hu+unsubscribe@opensuse.org
For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-hu+help@opensuse.org
[/footer]

But isn't added in a new MIME part, it's appended to the end of the base64
encoded  part. So a client will decode the plaintext footer, too.
The result is familiar:

enovak@enovak:~> mimencode -u
--
To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-hu+unsubscribe@opensuse.org
For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-hu+help@opensuse.org
�����v+b�v�r��jwl���j)���������i��^�ˬ{�+
which is exactly the same as seen on the mailing list.

> a) find the way to change Content-Transfer-Encoding from base64 to 8bit on
gmail
Can not be set. Anyone who uses accented characters, will send a base64 encoded
mail from gmail.

> b) declare that gmail is not supported on opensuse mailing lists
For the Hungarian list, we should (as for now).

> c) remove the plaintext footer on the lists and change it somehow
> d) use any non-"official" mlmmj patch
There could be a parser, which decides in virtue of encoding:
* emails with 7bit/8bit/quoted-printable encoding get the plain text footer;
* emails with base64 encoding get a base64 encoded footer;
* emails with unknown encoding should not get a footer.
