Summary: Traceback in error log - bounce handling

Initial Comment:
I got this traceback in my error log:

Jun 20 14:58:56 2002 (1992) Traceback (most recent call
last):
  File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line
105, in __oneloop
    self.__onefile(msg, msgdata)
  File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line
154, in __onefile
    keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata)
  File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Queue/BounceRunner.py",
line 71, in _dispose
    addrs = BouncerAPI.ScanMessages(mlist, msg)
  File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Bouncers/BouncerAPI.py",
line 60, in ScanMessages
    addrs = sys.modules[modname].process(msg)
  File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Bouncers/Microsoft.py",
line 35, in process
    body = StringIO(subpart.get_payload())
TypeError: expected read buffer, list found

The following had probably happened:
1. A spam mail was sent to one of our lists.
2. The list tried to send a "waiting for moderator
approval" mail to the sender of the spam mail.
3. The "waiting for moderator approval" mail bounced
(because the sender address was, of course, invalid). 

The bounce in (3) gave me the traceback and was moved
to qfiles/shunt/. PCK file is attached to this bug
report. Let me know if you need the DB file too... :)
