If this is Mailman 2.1, I'd write changepw.py like so (untested):
-------------------- snip snip --------------------
from Mailman import Errors
def changepw(mlist, addr, newpasswd):
try:
mlist.setMemberPassword(addr, newpasswd)
except Errors.NotAMember:
print 'Not a member address:', addr
except Errors.BadPasswordError:
print 'Not a valid password'
else:
mlist.Save()
