The TriLUG mailman software is setup to filter out almost
all attachments.  In this case, however, the attachment was
"Content-Type: message/rfc822" which is just another e-mail
message.  Anything bad inside that message would have also
been filtered out, so I wouldn't worry too much about
list e-mail.

Cheers,
