Summary: rfc822.parseaddress() in Util.py Invalid

Initial Comment:
The reference to rfc822.parseaddress() on line 160 of
Util.py in Mailman 2.0.12 is invalid. As of at least
Python 2.1 and Python 2.2, the rfc822 module does not
contain this function. This makes it impossible to use
add_members from the command line, although web-based
subscription still seems to work.

The pertinent traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/add_members", line 221, in ?
    main()
  File "/usr/sbin/add_members", line 195, in main
    nres = ml.ApprovedAddMembers(nmembers, None, 0,
send_welcome_msg)
  File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line
1097, in
    ApprovedAddMembers
    Utils.ValidateEmail(name)
  File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Utils.py", line 160,
in ValidateEmail
    realname,str = rfc822.parseaddress(str)
AttributeError: 'rfc822' module has no attribute
'parseaddress'

The fix is pretty simple. Simply replace

realname,str = rfc822.parseaddress(str)

on line 160 of Utils.py with

realname,str = rfc822.parseaddr(str)
