When I signed up, I got an email with subject:
Welcome to the "Python-ideas" mailing list
It included the text:
======================================================================
You must know your password to change your options (including changing
the password, itself) or to unsubscribe without confirmation. It is:
my-cleartext-password
======================================================================
This has bugged me about Mailman in the past... luckily I used a
low-tier password for this (I know, I should use a unique password).
But some users will use a password which is valuable to them.
Should this "feature" be turned off for new subscribers?
