ive been trying to google for information but i havent come across anything really about testing...
...so if there isnt anyway to test it...
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?

i noticed the nimda test virus in the Mailman tar.gz file how do i test Mailman using the nimda test file?
That file is actually only in the Mailman source code as a way to exercise the email parser package's MIME handling code; Nimda virus emails have particularly bad MIME parts, so we wanted to make sure Mailman's email parser didn't choke on them.
There's no way to "test" Mailman using that file -- it doesn't even contain the whole virus, just part of an infected message. What exactly did you want to test?
