This isn't a mailman problem as you well know. And I don't think that
the solution is to have mailman test for weak passwords.
The real, long term solution is to encourage people to use good
password management systems. The best password management system I've
seen is sadly OS X only: 1Password. But there are also the password
management systems built into web browsers, which are better than
nothing.
