yes, surprisingly, the mailing list has been updated in to new version 1.1.15 without any effort made by me. I am surprised because I have never tried to update the list, is it possible that the updation is done from our web server end?

I have noticed this change after seeing your reply.

I am unable to add or subscribe any member using mass subscription option under membership management of my mailing list. I am facing the below error since yesterday:

Error: The form lifetime has expired. (request forgery check)

This message comes from the new in 2.1.15 CSRF mitigation features.

When did you upgrade to 2.1.15?

Have you set a value for FORM_LIFETIME in mm_cfg.py? If so, what? (The default setting in Defaults.py is 1 hour.)

What the message is telling you is that the mass subscribe form you are submitting was retrieved from the host longer than FORM_LIFETIME before it was submitted. If this is not the case, there is some issue in your web server. Perhaps the FAQ at http://wiki.list.org/x/ioA9 is applicable.
