I am happy to announce the final release of the Mailman 2.1.11.
Mailman 2.1.11 is a cleanup of a few problems found since the release of
Mailman 2.1.10. It fixes the issue of shunted email subscribe requests
and a few minor issues. It updates the contrib/mmdsr script for some
2.1.10 and 2.1.11 log and error messages, and it adds a new cron to cull
and optionally archive old entries in the 'bad' and 'shunt' queues.
Mailman 2.1.11 has updates to several i18n translations.
A few bounce log messages now have the list name prepended.
There is a new Defaults.py|mm_cfg.py setting
ACCEPTABLE_LISTNAME_CHARACTERS with default value '[-+_.=a-z0-9]'. This
Python regular expression character class specifies the characters
allowed in list names. The motivation for this is the fact that
previously, a list named, e.g., xxx&yyy could be created and MTA aliases
generated that would cause the MTA to execute yyy as a command. There
is a possible security issue here, but it is not believed to be
exploitable in any meaningful way.
If anyone is concerned about the security issue and not ready to
upgrade, the mailman-2.1.11-listname-patch file contains a patch that
can be applied to Mailman 2.1.9 or 2.1.10 to add this feature.
See the release notes at
<http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?group_id=103&release_id=605074>
for more details.

At this point I anticipate releasing 2.1.11 final on June 30. I am
currently waiting for some updates to the Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR)
translation. At this point, I expect that to be the only change from
2.1.11rc2 to 2.1.11 final.

Hi everybody,
I wanted to let you know that Terri Oda has written a nice script to
turn the old FAQ wizard into FAQ entries on the wiki. She and others
have spent some time gardening, tweaking and updating the wiki FAQ and
it is now ready to take over as our definitive FAQ. Thanks Terri and
everyone else who contributed to this effort!
We'll keep the old FAQ wizard around so that existing links will
continue to work. I've added a footer indicating that it is obsolete
and pointing people at the wiki FAQ. I've also disabled write access
to the FAQ wizard.
Here's the new FAQ:
http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Frequently+Asked+Questions
There's also a link to this on the front page of the wiki:
http://wiki.list.org
Enjoy,
- -Barry

Note that since the 2.1.11rc1 tarball was prepared, a few issues
involving the Dutch, German, Korean, Russian, Spanish and traditional
Chinese translations have been corrected, so if you use any of these
languages, you probably will want to wait for the next candidate or
final release.
