I have discovered a compatibility issue between Mailman 2.1.12rc1 and
Python 2.4. As a result of the Python 2.6 compatibility changes, we no
longer install the email 2.5.8 package in Mailman's pythonlib if
Python's email version is greater.
This creates a problem when Python's email is 3.0.1 which is the Python
2.4 package. There is no problem with the email 4.0.x packages in
Python 2.5+.
The following patch to Scrubber.py works around the incompatibility and
will be included in subsequent 2.1.12 releases.
