Comment 11 for bug 266588

How about changing that chunk of code to:

   SPAMD_HOST = 'localhost'
   SPAMD_PORT = None
   if hasattr(mm_cfg, 'SPAMASSASSIN_HOST):
       SPAMD_HOST = mm_cfg.SPAMASSASSIN_HOST
       try:
           SPAMD_HOST, SPAMD_PORT = string.split(SPAMD_HOST,
':', 1)
           SPAMD_PORT = int(SPAMD_PORT)
       except ValueError:
           SPAMD_PORT = None
   if not SPAMD_PORT: SPAMD_PORT = 783

This gets rid of the "bare except"s, and I think it's a
little clearer than the previous code. The ValueError will
be tripped if the string doesn't have a : in it, or if the
int coercion fails. Though perhaps in that instance you'd
want to log an error or something...
