The command line tools are listed at
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.009.htp>

The tool for changing a member's address is bin/clone_member with the
--remove option. See bin/clone_member --help.

With appropriate permissions on clone_member, you should be able to run
it via php.

For changing other member options, see for example
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2007-November/058953.html>.
You can also change a member address this way, but the member will
have to confirm the change.
