Happy to announce that the mailman migration is over. We are now on version 2.1.18 and running on a jessie machine, fermium.
Here is a summary of changes that are relevant to users and list admins:
Administrators / Moderators
- Emails are validated more accurately. Spam prevention. - Poster password added. Allows users who may meet moderation standards to automatically have their emails accepted. - Cookies now set the secure flag when over HTTPS (default). - Sessions can be invalidated through logouts on administrator and moderation interfaces.
Users
- DMARC improvements solve issues users have with Yahoo and Outlook regarding mail. This isn't done yet but unblocked with the new version. - Password reminder link is now on the roster page (private archives). - Emails can be automatically accepted to private lists if a poster password is used provided by list administrators.
