[Mailman-Users] New user question

[AerosmithFanClub.com List Admin]

Thanks but this I don't need to go through all that junk just to make it so 
a user does not need to remember a password.  The software says a subscribe 
request that includes a password will use that password for the user.  All 
I am asking (and asking again) is if there is a way to set up an initial 
list of subscribers all with the common password?  Perhaps I didn't make 
that point clear the first time.  BTW if you respond to the list it makes 
it easier.
