+ - Thanks to Jim Popovitch, Mailman has a new 'security' log and logs
+ authentication failures to the various web CGI functions. The logged
+ data include the remote IP and can be used to automate blocking of IPs
+ with something like fail2ban. Since Mailman 2.1.14, these have returned
+ an http 401 status and the information should be logged by the web
+ server, but this new log makes that more convenient. Also, the
+ 'mischief' log entries for 'hostile listname' noe include the remote IP
+ if available.
