[blag-whereto] password security policy

[Abdur-Rahman Morgan]

beloumi,

Thanks for pointing this out. The current mailing list for blag is 
located at lists.blagblagblag.org but the same issue would still remain 
true for both mail and http logins.

I'll look into Securing Mailman's web GUI by using Secure HTTP/SSL[0]
and An encrypted mailing list with Mailman, Exim and Gnupg on Debian 
GNU/Linux[1].

Thank you,

Abdur-Rahman
