 I moved mailman to a new server and it looks like the old one never ran
 mailman cronjobs (the new one does). That said, yes it is a standard
 message and it defaults to being enabled, but since nobody complained
 before we've disabled it again for our lists.
 
 

I noticed the message contain the password in plain text. Is this
possible to be removed?

Thanks,

I think that's the default mailman behaviour and can't be changed.

To quote the subscription page:

*Do not use a valuable password* as it will occasionally be
emailed back to you in cleartext.

Just use some random-generated password. You'll easily be able to
request it back if needed. ;)

Even if it's removed, it means that mailman stores passwords in plain
text, which is a bad thing.

That's an age-old issue with Mailman and will finally be remedied with
Mailman version 3.x.
