There are three levels of password:

moderator:   May approve or reject posts.  Cannot access list config.
list admin:  May access and change list config, and moderate.
site admin:  May create and remove lists, change config, and moderate.

change_pw only affects the site admin password.  To change list admin
and moderator passwords, you must operate on each list.  In the web
interface, there is a Passwords section of the interface where you can
change those.

If you have a lot of lists, you may want to use a script.  See
