Ready for the New Authentication and Data Privacy Requirements?
By Susan Brown Faghani
Manager, Marketing and Sales Communication,
L-Soft

Consent. Security. Data privacy. We're navigating a wave of major new regulations and legislation, from the EU GDPR's sweeping requirements to the email authentication provisions in the U.S. Binding Operational Directive (BOD 18-01). Every organization is responsible for compliance.

Find Out How LISTSERV Can Help You Comply with DMARC Requirements
By Nathan Brindle
Senior Product Engineer, L-Soft
The recent issuance of the U.S. BOD 18-01 includes in its checklist for compliance a requirement for U.S. government agencies to implement the DMARC p=reject policy for all second-level domains and mail-sending hosts no later than October 16, 2018. To properly comply with BOD 18-01, L-Soft recommends that all such affected agencies should upgrade to LISTSERV 16.0-2017a, the latest release version.

By Jacob Haller
Senior Support Engineer, L-Soft

Recently a customer came up with a somewhat unusual request that couldn't easily be handled with LISTSERV's built-in web interface reporting. The request was to output a list of email addresses for all subscribers on all of his lists. While this is technically possible to do for single lists in several different ways, the customer had several hundred lists to process.

Q:
How can I secure access to LISTSERV Maestro with HTTPS for free?
By Johannes Hubert
Senior Applications Programmer, L-Soft

More and more, the modern web is migrating over to the encrypted HTTPS protocol as a replacement for the old, unencrypted HTTP protocol. In some areas, HTTPS is already becoming mandatory, and modern browsers have begun marking web pages that contain a password field as "not secure" if they are not served via HTTPS.
