As far as I know, this is the first report of any such issue. It worked
for me in 2.1.5 and it works for me in current Mailman.

Is this the only thing you can't change via the web admin interface?
I.e. can you mass subscribe or invite? Can you change other settings?

If not, see the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/ioA9>.

There was a bug fixed in Mailman 2.1.10 that would not allow any
changes to a member's settings from the admin Membership List page,
but it only affected member addresses that contained a double quote
(") character. If this is your issue, see the changes to
Mailman/Cgi/admin.py at
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/revision/972>
for a fix.
