Ask the site admin to set it for you.
If you mean the *site* password, use the command-line:
cd ~mailman ./bin/mmsitepass

hack it :) 1-create a new list call it test 2-enter the password for the list 3- open the config.db of the test list and search for "password" 4- in front of it you will see something like this "QI35687p7U193s" write it down . 5- now open config.db of the list you forgot the password, and overwrite the password with the above string you wrote down. Now the password of your list should be same as test list.
I have done it and it works
Cheers

1.You must have root or mailman-user-group access to do this.
- If you have these access rights, it will be much more easier to visit the admin page of this list and to use the mm_site password to set a new admin password for this list.
