On: Plain Text Offenders - Did you just email me back ...

Mailman ...

My LUG uses it and mails me my password in plaintext every month; IIRC it is|was the default setting ... /me-rolls-eyes

To be fair the Mailman registration page explicitly tells you not to use a secure password as it'll be mailed back to you in plain text.

And to be fair, you can't really do anything with that password except change your subscription status. That said, version 3 is in the works and I read that "feature" is going away.

I don't know, do the admins not get sent the email too as they are subscribed? It's a loooong time since I used mailman.

If you log in to Mailman, you can at least tell it to stop sending those emails every month...
