Today, astute observers may have noticed that lists.fedoraproject.org and lists.fedorahosted.org didn’t participate in the long running, annoying, insecure and exasperating tradition called “mailman day”. This is where mailman spams you with a reminder for every list you are on with your plaintext “password” in clear email.

Since we have now fully switched over to mailman 3, you can relax and rest easy that we DID NOT spam you with your mailman password today, nor will we from now on. 😉

Our mailman3 instances authenticate users via Fedora Account System OpenID, persona or yahoo, no local throwaway passwords to look for or remember.
