[Tokio Kikuchi]

Hi Developers and i18ners,

Mailman 2.1.8a1 was released for alpha test and i18n translations.
Unfortunately, SF file upload is currently down, so I've put up the tar
ball and the GPG signature on my Japanese Mailman site.

 gzipped tar file ... http://mm.tkikuchi.net/mailman-2.1.8a1.tgz
 GPG signature ... http://mm.tkikuchi.net/mailman-2.1.8a1.tgz.sig

And, here is the excerpts from NEWS file.

Cheers,

Tokio

Here is a history of user visible changes to Mailman.

2.1.8a1 (10-Mar-2006)

  Bug fixes and other patches

    - Bouncers support added: 'unknown user', Microsoft SMTPSVC, Prodigy.net
      and several others.

    - Updated email library to 2.5.7 which will encode payload into
qp/base64
      upon setting.  This enabled backing out the scrubber related patches
      including 'X-Mailman-Scrubbed' header in 2.1.7.

    - Fix SpamDetect.py potential hold/reject loop problem.

    - A warning message from email package to the stderr can cause error
      in Logging because stderr may be detached from the process during
      the qrunner run.  We chose not to output errors to stderr but to
      the logs/error if the process is running under mailmanctl subprocess.

    - DKIM header cleansing was separated from Cleanse.py and added to
      -owner messages too.

    - Fixes: Lose Topics when go directly to topics URL (1194419).
      UnicodeError running bin/arch (1395683).  edithtml.py missing import
      (1400128).  Bad escape in cleanarch.  Wrong timezone in list archive
      index pages (1433673).  bin/arch fails with TypeError (1430236).
      Subscription fails with some Language combinations (1435722).
      Postfix delayed notification not recognized (863989).  2.1.7 (VERP)
      mistakes delay notice for bounce (1421285).  show_qfiles: 'str'
      object has no attribute 'as_string' (1444447).

  Miscellaneous
