I realized no mail had gone out for 6 days, and saw
that qrunner was barfing on SOMETHING. This is with
Mailman 2.0.6. Even
though I'm behind the times, I'd bet this bug could be
in 2.1.X -- I just don't know enough Python to see
what's going on. I blew away a bunch of files in my
qfiles directory; I didn't save the bad message.

I also encountered that bug once at a site of a friend.
Take a look at Mailman/
and especially the line with
boundary = msg.getparam(
this can result in boundary being "None"
which is then not treated properly.
So add the following check below this with
the correct indentation:
if not boundary:
If I remember correctly this was handled completely differently
in Mailman 2.1 so I believe that this bug is limited to
Mailman 2.0.x.
