[Mailman-Users] __init__.py line 51 Empty module name

[sumeet]

I went to Python 2.2.2 and got the same errors. I think the thing to note is
that i did patch my MailMan w/ the Scrubber.py patch from Tokio Kikuchi.
The header problem was getting to be too much. But i did not do this
recently and the problem just appeared. any other suggestions? thanks.
sumeet.
