[Spambayes] found a bug

Hi all,
   A friend of mine had a cache file in his "unknown" folder that caused  
the "review" web page in pop3proxy.py to generate the following  
traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):

   File "spambayes/Dibbler.py", line 398, in found_terminator
     getattr(plugin, name)(**params)

   File "pop3proxy.py", line 929, in onReview
     judgement = judgement.split(';')[0].strip()

   File "pop3proxy.py", line 815, in _makeMessageInfo
     print type(text)

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'replace'

He sent me the offending message (it's actually a digest of messages),  
and I replicated the problem:

msg = open("/Users/dshaw/Desktop/crash_spam.txt", "r")
message = mbox.get_message(msg)
part = typed_subpart_iterator(message, 'text', 'plain').next()
text = part.get_payload()
 >>> text
[<email.Message.Message instance at 0x275ff0>]

So, instead of text, the payload is a list containing a single  
email.Message.Message instance.  Here are the objects' respective  
payloads:

 >>> message._payload
[<email.Message.Message instance at 0x279290>, <email.Message.Message  
instance at 0x279160>, <email.Message.Message instance at 0x279e00>,  
<email.Message.Message instance at 0x280b10>, <email.Message.Message  
instance at 0x281340>, <email.Message.Message instance at 0x2828d0>,  
<email.Message.Message instance at 0x283300>, <email.Message.Message  
instance at 0x2b60a0>, <email.Message.Message instance at 0x27f4d0>,  
<email.Message.Message instance at 0x2b7c70>, <email.Message.Message  
instance at 0x2b9ac0>, <email.Message.Message instance at 0x2b8c30>,  
<email.Message.Message instance at 0x2bb770>, <email.Message.Message  
instance at 0x2bc180>]

 >>> text[0]._payload
