[Mailman-Users] User Passwords - Mass Subscribe/Mass Change

[Drew Tenenholz]

All --

So, I found a somewhat useful script out there on the internet, and I'm able to save & run it, but it always generates a random password.  I've made what I think are a couple of simple changes that should allow me to set a specific (unitary) password, but that's not what the script reports, and if I try to unsubscribe, I do get an email reply saying I used the wrong password, so....

Any help in fixing this code?

TIA,
Drew
