rt.cpan.org SSL certificate update

Tis the season for SSL certificate renewals.  For the past five years, rt.cpan.org's SSL certificate was sponsored by IT-Kartellet.  This year, Best Practical Solutions has picked up the cert as part of our ongoing support of rt.cpan.org.

Please let us know of any problems with the update at our usual address, rt-cpan-admin at bestpractical.com.

Greylisting

We have experimentally enabled greylisting on the mail servers that accept mail for cpan.org and pm.org and some other domains.

We expect that this will result in a reduction in the amount of spam that makes it through our filters.

You may notice a slight delay in mail delivery, as your MTA may have to retry to satisfy the greylisting filter.
