As you see at the bottom of the bug page, the issue was fixed (worked 
around) by multiple patches, so using a recent moin release should help.

The main problem with that stuff was that some python standard lib's 
email function are buggy and behave differently, so we had to add some 
magic dynamically doing the right thing.
