I want have users use a common password for all the lists one is subsscribed to?
Is this posible in mailman and how can I do it.
Currently no. It will be (more) possible with 2.1 should you use an external data store.

Actually, you don't need the external data store for this to work, although to share a single password amongst all lists requires some explicit action on the part of the user. On their options page they have to check the "Change globally" checkbox when they change their password.
