Here is the algorythm Sympa follows :
        if footer_type==append
                if message is text/plain
                        append header/footer to it
                else if message is multipart AND first part is text/plain
                        append header/footer to first part

        if footer_type==mime
                if message is not multipart/alternative
                        add header/footer as a new MIME part

When in 'mime' footer_type, your header/footer can contain its Content-type
(text/html, message/rfc822 or audio/wav), all you have to do it rename the
file message.footer.mime or message.header.mime
