ive been trying to google for information but i havent come across anything really about testing...


Mailman cannot detect email viruses. You can use an external email virus scanner for this purpose.

what do you mean by excercising the email parser package's MIME handling code.....is there anything to worry about and nothing to test really....and are the tests for developing purposes only?


Exactly, the tests are for development purposes only, to make sure new bugs don't show up in the email attachment code (Nimda attaches itself to emails).
