[Mailman-Users] password problems

[Jon Carnes]

Check the mailman/locks directory and see if someone has the list held open.

To look at the encrypted password (and see if it gets changed) you can use 
the following command line:
  ~mailman/bin/dumpdb ~/mailman/lists/<listname>/config.db |grep password
