Hi ppl,

I've noticed that when the configured spool directory is not writable
for the user running the transport, that pymsn-t exits with a traceback.

This is because it does not catch the OSError caused by mkdir, which is
called indirectly by setAvatar in avatar.py. Unfortunately the setAvatar
call is done as a result of the "import session" in main.py and that is
done before debugging is initialised, so there is nothing in the logs
showing the user what failed and the traceback is generally not shown if
pymsn-t is started from an init script.

I'm not very proficient in python, so I thought I'd ask here how you
think this should be solved.

Regards,
Maurice.

P.S.: I tried to find the SVN archive and failed. Is there a SVN archive
      currently up somewhere or are you working with snapshots?
