Thanks Mark,

You are right!

It appears that rpm installation on SuSE installs automatically cron job for me.
# rpm -ql mailman-2.1.4-83.13 | grep /etc/init.d/mailman
/etc/init.d/mailman

There is another cron job I did myself, sitting at:
/var/spool/cron/tabs/mailman 

I'll just remove this one.

Best Regards,
Leon Kolchinsky

Is there more than one "mailpasswds" entry in mailman's crontab or perhaps crontabs installed for mailman in two different ways, e.g.
/var/spool/cron/mailman and /etc/cron.d/mailman?

Whatever the reason, it appears that cron/mailpasswds was run twice.
Either that or maybe you have a "backup" list on another server that also mailed passwords.
