If you're still after a reply, this mail I sent in 2009 (!) may be
useful to you --

Some work has been done on SSO (via Mozilla Persona) for Mailman 3's
admin interface but it's hardly ready for prime time last I heard.
AFAIK it's not yet available for the core or for the archives.

Nobody has contributed it yet for Mailman 2 to my knowledge.

None of the above is authoritative, but I'm usually fairly well-informed.

[Mailman-Users] Alternative authentication mechanisms for Mailman

2014-01-12 Thread Rainer Hoerbe
If one is using mailman in an environment that has some identity management 
system, such as Kerberos, a SAML federation or OAUTH, mailman should be 
integrated into such an single sign on system to get rid of passwords.

Although I hear rumors that CERN di such an integration for shibboleth, I could 
not find anything on the web, because it is so hard to google for a search term 
containing "mailman". Also, I did not find a hint on lists.org.

Does anybody have a link to answers on questions like this:
- How to do container-bases authentication for mailman? (e.g., use apache 
authentication like mod_ssl or mod_auth_kerb)
- Is there an integration fo mailman with shibboleth or another SAML product?
- Did someone integrate OAUTH2 or some social login (FB/LI/G+/TW)?

- Rainer
