[Mailman-Users] Passwords

[Cristian Prevedello]

here you are a quick and small patch to send password via a mail request.

This is useful especially when you don't give you web access to mailing list
users.

the syntax is very simple.

mail -s"sendpass <user>" maillist-request at domain</dev/null

the password will be mailed to <user>.


feedback is welcome :D
