Summary: Incorrect config load 2.1.5 up to 2.1.6rc4

Initial Comment:
This is observed in debian 2.1.5 package and in 2.1.6rc4  
installed from source:  
  
Custom header rules under Privacy Options/Spam filters  
are lost if the URL  
http://server/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/listname/privacy/spam  
is accessed directly without being authenticated in  
advance.  
  
How to reproduce:  
  
1. Enter some rules   
2. Logout/Login view them to see if they are still there  
3. Logout  
3. Try to access  
http://server/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/listname/privacy/spam  
directly. Mailman asks for a password and after that the 
rules are blank.  
  
2.1.5 also loses them on a few more occasions when  
navigating around the web interface. In either case the 
custom antispam rules feature is unusable.
