988d00b519 - Update to version 2.2.1, which includes a fix to a cross-site scripting
vulnerability.
- Add a file, installed to $DOCSDIR, with more explicit post-installation
  instructions.
- Update $PKGMESSAGE to point to this new file.
- Add more explicit warnings in various places that MAIL_GID *must* be set at
  build time if Mailman is to be used with an alternate (non-Sendmail) MTA.
- Bring port in line with other similar ports by NOT explicitly depending on
  Apache.  This is both more maintainable and allows the user greater scope
  in setting up a custom configuration, including the use of an alternative
  web server.  (Also, Mailman _can_ be used without a web server.)
- Clean up which documentation files get installed to $DOCSDIR.

9fb9d105a9 - Update author's email address in $DESCR.
- Update $PKGREQ to depend explicitly on Python >= 2.1.3, and not just >= 2.1
- Document required value of $MAIL_GID for Exim4.
- Substantial rewrite of $PKGINSTALL:
  - Simplified layout.
  - More extensive error checking.
  - More expressive and user-friendly output.
- Substantial rewrite of $PKGDEINSTALL:
  - Simplified layout.
  - More expressive and user-friendly output.
  - Delete %%MAILMANDIR%%/data/last_mailman_version in DEINSTALL, and restore
    it in POST-DEINSTALL if the entire Mailman installation has not been
    removed.  This file is required by Mailman's update script (run as part
    of the installation procedure) to update active mailing lists.
  - Delete the errorlog if it is the only existing logfile.  This will
    finally allow the mailman port/package to be completely and cleanly
    deinstalled when there are no active lists or updated configuration.
- Bump $PORTREVISION, with apologies to those tracking the port.

It should now finally be possible to update a Mailman installation with
active mailing lists simply by deinstalling the port/package, and
reinstalling a later version (or by using portupgrade(1)).  There are still
no guarantees, though, and a backup is thorouhly recommended.

fe127c87ad - Overdue update to version 2.0.13, a minor bugfix release
- Refrain from invoking ${PERL}
- Call Mailman's distributed check_perms script post-installation to fix file
  permissions instead of doing so manually.  This is more modular and will
  greatly ease maintenance of the port.  It implies a level of trust in
  check_perms... but then, installing and running any 3rd party software
  implies a level of trust.

4eb62bb3af - Add missing $CONFIGURE_ARGS. (Whoops again!)
- Actually install the images for Mailman's web front-end to
  ${PREFIX}/www/icons, instead of depending on the user to do this in a
  post-installation step.  Add a new build-time variable to control the
  location where these images are intstalled.
- Gratuitous change:  Change the GNU logo and link in the footer of most
  pages in Mailman's web front-end to a "Powered by FreeBSD" logo, and a link
  to the FreeBSD home page.  This was accomplished by:
  - Patching the source to allow for multiple footer bars based on a new
    configuration variable LOGO_OS.  If LOGO_OS is set to 'FreeBSD', the
    FreeBSD footer will be displayed; otherwise, it reverts to the default
    GNU footer.
  - Set LOGO_OS to 'FreeBSD' in the installed Defaults.py  (The user may
    override this in mm_cfg.py)
- Bump $PORTREVISION again.  (Sorry guys.)

05e074dbd2 - Use MAIL_GID of 26 (mailnull) instead of 1 when installing Mailman to work
with Sendmail, if on a recent $OSVERSION.  (Whoops!)
  - Submitted by:	Richard Kiss <kiss@hhn.com>
- Clarify $PKGMESSAGE and output of $PKGDEINSTALL somewhat.
- Correctly handle Mailman config file (mm_cfg.py) in $PLIST when
  deinstalling port/package.
- Bump PORTREVISION again.

74c1794a88 - Cleaning up the Mailman port, Step 3.
- Add a $PKGDEINSTALL script to allow the port to clean up after itself
- Automatically create Mailman user's crontab(5) entry upon port/package
  installation, and remove it upon deinstallation.
- Intended $PKGINSTALL according to personal taste.  Converted tabs to
  spaces.
- Remove some extraneous comments from the port's Makefile.  (Oops)
- Further streamline @exec's in $PLIST.
- Bump PORTREVISION
- The reworking of this port is an ongoing process - Mailman users, please
  bear with me!

907476ac43 - Interim update to version 2.0.8 (which contains important security fixes),
maintaining most of the port's existing structure.  A more comprehensive
  restructuring of this port is in the works.
- Assume maintainership, pending any objections from -ports.
