Hello Taina, I don't know if this is the preferred/recommended/offically sanctioned by Bob way to do this but if you have shell access to the mailman system then in the 'bin' sub-directory of the mailman installation is a python script called change_pw. Quickly scanning through it it says in its preamble: "Thus, this script generates new passwords for a list, and optionally sends it to all the owners of the list." Take a look at that. It may just fit your needs. Regards, Steff Watkins (Internet? Email?
