I've added a new configuration variable to Defaults.py.in, called ALLOW_SITE_ADMIN_COOKIES. Set this to true and authenticating to a list admin login page with the site password, and Mailman will drop a cookie representing the site authentication.

I had to clear some of my cookies for the site in question, but after that it worked fine. Thanks.
I also had to get back to you as to whether a mailman upgrade broke the exisiting crypted admin passwords. While the upgrade of one my of my sites to mm 2.1a3 seemed to have broken that, I just checked that the upgrade of another site I just completed didn't cause problems and the old passwords worked.
Thanks, Marc
