Releases for User mailman register

Please, before upgrading from any 5.x.1 release, read carefully the Note in the User Mailman Register frontpage.

For new installations of the module, you need also to run the update procedure and select the n. 3 update. More info.

The main features of this stable release are that the user subscription status is retrived from mailman server (so you can change it also with mailman itself and User Mailaman Register will still correctly display it) and anonymous user can be enabled to join yuor lists providing his own email.

This is the full list of new features and bug fixes:

• #351075: Unsubscribing via email not reflected in User_Mailman_Register: A syncronized mechanism to retrive user subscriptions status directly from mailman server.
• #358532: Problems when users change their subscription with mailman manager: An UMR submodule to import a mailman dump file in order to syncronize user subscriptions and passwords.
• #386962: menu link for mailman register gives permission denied for anon users: mechanism for anonymous users subscription (or invitation).
• #423976: When display in own category is unselected, subscription information is not shown
• #423974: Naming suggestions for Menus and Tabs + minor text changes
• #447966: Permissions are backwards
• Default choice in user registration form is no more global but per-list.
• Added css classes in the subscription form for custom visualization.

IMPORTANT

Differently from previuos drupal 5.x.1 , when the anonymous user has the "access user_mailman_register" permission control, it could able to join any list of which he has also the "can subscribe .." permission. Don't activate that permission if you don't know what are you doing or your lists coul be spammed by anonymous emails. If you activate it, set the "invite" list option if you want only invite them.

Changes from last beta2:

• When a user email is going to be changed, new email address will be now correctly subscribed with previuos digest/nomail subscription user setting
• Minor bug fix

IMPORTANT

Changes from last beta1:

• To display lists subscriptions in the registration form of new user, now you have to set the "can subscribe .." permission to the "authenticated user" (instead of to the "anonymous user" as before) as well as to activate the "Visible in user registration form" option.
• Added the global "Hourly threshold" option to limit anonymous user subscription submissions.
