I am pleased to announce the release of Mailman 2.1.30rc1. Python 2.6 is the minimum supported, but Python 2.7 is strongly recommended.
This is a routine bug fix release with a few new features. See the attached README.txt for details. Mailman 2.1.30 will be the last release of the Mailman 2.1 branch from the GNU Mailman project. It contains some new strings which are untranslated in most of the i18n translations. If you can help update any of the translations, please contribute your changes. Changes can be submitted via a bzr merge proposal on Launchpad or by sending an updated mailman.po file and or templates directly to me. This will be the last chance to get i18n updates into a release. Mailman is free software for managing email mailing lists and e-newsletters. Mailman is used for all the python.org and SourceForge.net mailing lists, as well as at hundreds of other sites. For more information, please see our web site at one of: http://www.list.org https://www.gnu.org/software/mailman http://mailman.sourceforge.net/ Mailman 2.1.30rc1 can be downloaded from https://launchpad.net/mailman/2.1/ https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mailman/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/mailman/ -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

2.1.30rc1 (11-Jan-2020)
New Features
- Thanks to Jim Popovitch, there is now a dmarc_moderation_addresses
list setting that can be used to apply dmarc_moderation_action to mail
From: addresses listed or matching listed regexps. This can be used
to modify mail to addresses that don't accept external mail From:
themselves.
- There is a new MAX_LISTNAME_LENGTH setting. The fix for LP: #1780874
obtains a list of the names of all the all the lists in the installation
in order to determine the maximum length of a legitimate list name. It
does this on every web access and on sites with a very large number of
lists, this can have performance implications. See the description in
Defaults.py for more information.
- Thanks to Ralf Jung there is now the ability to add text based captchas
(aka textchas) to the listinfo subscribe form. See the documentation
for the new CAPTCHA setting in Defaults.py for how to enable this. Also
note that if you have custom listinfo.html templates, you will have to
add a <mm-captcha-ui> tag to those templates to make this work. This
feature can be used in combination with or instead of the Google
reCAPTCHA feature added in 2.1.26.
- Thanks to Ralf Hildebrandt the web admin Membership Management section
now has a feature to sync the list's membership with a list of email
addresses as with the bin/sync_members command.
- There is a new drop_cc list attribute set from DEFAULT_DROP_CC. This
controls the dropping of addresses from the Cc: header in delivered
messages by the duplicate avoidance process. (LP: #1845751)
- There is a new REFUSE_SECOND_PENDING mm_cfg.py setting that will cause
a second request to subscribe to a list when there is already a pending
confirmation for that user. This can be set to Yes to prevent
mailbombing of a third party by repeatedly posting the subscribe form.
(LP: #1859104)
i18n
- The Japanese translation has been updated by Yasuhito FUTATSUKI.
Bug Fixes and other patches
- Fixed the confirm CGI to catch a rare TypeError on simultaneous
confirmations of the same token. (LP: #1785854)
- Scrubbed application/octet-stream MIME parts will now be given a
.bin extension instead of .obj.
- Added bounce recognition for a non-compliant opensmtpd DSN with
Action: error. (LP: #1805137)
- Corrected and augmented some security log messages. (LP: #1810098)
- Implemented use of QRUNNER_SLEEP_TIME for bin/qrunner --runner=All.
(LP: #1818205)
- Leading/trailing spaces in provided email addresses for login to private
archives and the user options page are now ignored. (LP: #1818872)
- Fixed the spelling of the --no-restart option for mailmanctl.
- Fixed an issue where certain combinations of charset and invalid
characters in a list's description could produce a List-ID header
without angle brackets. (LP: #1831321)
- With the Postfix MTA and virtual domains, mappings for the site list
-bounces and -request addresses in each virtual domain are now added
to data/virtual-mailman (-owner was done in 2.1.24). (LP: #1831777)
- The paths.py module now extends sys.path with the result of
site.getsitepackages() if available. (LP: #1838866)
- A bug causing a UnicodeDecodeError in preparing to send the confirmation
request message to a new subscriber has been fixed. (LP: #1851442)
