Summary: Don't do spam processing for owner emails

Initial Comment:
I have had to add the following to mm_cfg.py -  
# Don't spam detect on owner messages or we'll get a 
loop 
OWNER_PIPELINE = [ 
#   'SpamDetect', 
    'Replybot', 
    'OwnerRecips', 
    'ToOutgoing', 
] 
 
The problem is that when I get spam to the list it gets 
passed (partially) to me as the owner and gets 
marked as spam, re-sent to me, etc.. 
 
I don't think it makes sense to look for spam to owner 
email by default - if the owner wants spam protection 
they can install a spam filter. It is much more difficult 
to alter a site wide filter to not process -owner emails.

Hi, 
 I've fixed SpamDetect.py not to process -owner messages if
it is internally crafted (having X-List-Administrivia
header).  I believe most of the list owners need this in the
pipeline because you get a lot of spam on -owner address
these days.

Please get the latest version of SpamDetect.py from CVS
(Release_2_1-maint branch).
