Is it only password reminders that you are seeing as unrecognized bounces?
No... I've appended one that was not a password reminder to the end of this post.

I just now appended (per your advise) the following to mm_cfg.py:
VERP_PASSWORD_REMINDERS = Yes VERP_PERSONALIZED_DELIVERIES = Yes VERP_CONFIRMATIONS = Yes
I then did "service mailman restart" and sent a test message through. Still no +VERP in the list-bounces@.
I assume you also have
VERP_DELIVERY_INTERVAL = 1
in mm_cfg.py. That's the important one.
This is rather annoying, especially since I went to a lot of trouble getting qmail to deliver the list-bounces+VERP to mailman in the first place, and things were working for quite a while...

When Mailman does the VERPing, not only the envelope sender (reflected as Return-Path:), but also the Sender: and Errors-To: headers are VERPd. Brad suggested in another reply that it is possibly some other, external MTA that is "unVERPing" the envelope. It seems unlikely that this is the case, both because it would also have to be "unVERPing" the Sender: and Errors-To:, and because I suspect that the qmail generated DSN above was generated by your own local qmail.
So it looks like for some reason, Mailman is not VERPing. Assuming you do have
VERP_DELIVERY_INTERVAL = 1
in mm_cfg.py, and it didn't somehow get lost, I don't know what would make Mailman behave this way.
