SSL pages for Mailman mailing list software

We’ve added Let’s Encrypt SSL support to many Mailman mailing list pages, including all the pages that ask for passwords or login information.

The use of SSL should be transparent. If you have bookmarks to URLs on your own lists like http://lists.example.com/mailman/admin/listname, you’ll automatically be redirected to the SSL (https) version of that page when you load it.

(New lists may not use SSL immediately when created, but will be switched to SSL when our system is able to obtain an SSL certificate for them. Quicker automation of this is something we’re working to improve.)

Users of Mailman lists shouldn’t notice any changes beyond pages being marked as “secure” in web browsers, but as always, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or see any problems.
