Hi :)
I was wondering, is it possible to obtain the admin password for a list if some bright person changes it and forgets what it is ?
I manage several lists under Mailman version 1.1
Cheers

You can't recover it, but you can change it. Log into the list admin page with the site password, then change the admin password.
If you forgot the site password, see bin/mmsitepass.
