Here is a history of user visible changes to Mailman.
2.0.12 (02-Jul-2002)
- Implemented a guard against some reply loops and 'bot
subscription attacks. Specifically, if a message to -request
has a Precedence: bulk (or list, or junk) header, the command is
ignored. Well-behaved 'bots should always include such a
header.
- Changes to the configure script so that you can pass in the mail
host and web host by setting the environment variables MAILHOST
and WWWHOST respectively. configure will also exit if it can't
figure out these values (usually due to broken dns).
- Closed another minor cross-site scripting vulnerability.
