[Mailman-Users] mailman-2.1.5.gz contains Exploit-MIME.gen According to McAfee

[Richard Barrett]

You do not say where you are downloading mailman source from but if it 
is from sourceforge then I doubt you will find the .tgz from there is 
infected.

But there is a test message for the nimda mail virus, which is 
inactive, in the installation test directory. This may be being 
misrecognised by your virus checking software.
