This is not the way to run reset_pw.py.

You run it with 'withlist', but there is some issue with your copy of
reset_pw.py. Running it via ./reset_pw.py hould produce usage
instructions, not a traceback.

Your copy of reset_pw.py is corrupted somehow. Line 41 in the file
should be

from Mailman.i18n import _

(no C at the end). Get a clean copy at
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/view/head:/bin/reset_pw.py>.
Note this is an 'unconfigured' file. replace @PYTHON@ on the first
line with /usr/bin/python or whatever the path to the python used by
Mailman is.
