This was fixed in Mailman 2.1.6

Some list's lists/listname/digest.mbox has a message with the following
characteristics:

# XXX Under email 2.5, it is possible that payload will be None.
# This can happen when you have a Content-Type: multipart/* with
# only one part and that part has two blank lines between the
# first boundary and the end boundary.

Or possibly a message with different characteristics that produces the
same symptom. You can work around this by finding the offending
message and editing the digest.mbox, or see
<http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/mailman/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py?r1=2.18.2.12&r2=2.18.2.13>
for a fix.
