Summary: trojan problem
Initial Comment:
more a observed comment but may have other implications
recently i was running bit defender antivirus on my pc
and found it reported
/usr/lib/mailman/tests/msgs/nimda.txt=>(IFRAME) infected:
Trojan.Exploit.Html.Iframe.Filedownload.AW <-
cevakrnl.xmd
from what i can gather the file is one used for testing
(not shure if the actual exploit code needs to be there for
that though)
but it raises an issue
in that because of the file being included in the distributed
code it may cause some distributions from including the
whole package in there distributions
and may also possibaly in some cercumstances lead to
legal action
as it may be construded that this trojan code is being
distributed
just feel that this should be pointed out to you
Dave

The file never contained any trojan code. It is safe to look at
it and if you do, you'll see that it is mostly MIME headers and
a few bits of innocuous content.
As of Mailman 2.1.6, the file is no longer in the distribution.
