+6.1 How do I get my password?
+</h2>
+If you've forgotten your password and haven't saved the welcome message or
+any reminder messages, you can always get a reminder through the web interface:
+
+<p>
+
+<ol>
+<li>Go to the list information page for the list from which you wish to
+ get your password
+ (This will probably be something like
+ <a class="url" href="http://WEBSERVER/mailman/listinfo/LISTNAME">http://WEBSERVER/mailman/listinfo/LISTNAME</a>)
+</li>
+<li>Look for the section marked "LISTNAME subscribers"
+ (this section is usually found near the bottom of the page).
+</li>
+<li>There should be a button marked "Unsubscribe or Edit Options."
+ Enter your email address in the box beside this button and press the
+ button.
+</li>
+<li>You should be brought to a new page which has an "Password
+ Reminder" section. Press the "Remind" button to have your password
+ emailed to you.
+</li>
+</ol>
+
+<p>
+If you do not receive the password reminder email after doing this, make sure
+that you typed your
+email address correctly and that the address you used is, indeed, actually
+subscribed to that list. For security reasons, Mailman generates the same
+member options page regardless of whether the address entered is subscribed
+or not. This means that people cannot use this part of the web interface to
+find out if someone is subscribed to the list, but it also means that it's
+hard to tell if you just made a typo.
+
+<p>
+You can also get a reminder using the email interface,
+
+<ol>
+<li>Send a mail to <span class="email">LISTNAME-request@DOMAIN</span> with the command
+ <var>password</var>
+
+<p>
+Commands can appear
+ in either the body or the subject of the message. (See
+ Section&nbsp;<a href="node10.html#sec:email">3.2</a> for more information about sending mail
+ commands.)
+
+<p>
+If you are not sending mail from your subscribed address, you can also
+ specify this address by sending the command <var>password&nbsp;address=<span class="MATH"><IMG
+ WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img1.png"
+ ALT="$&lt;$"></span>ADDRESS<span class="MATH"><IMG
+ WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img2.png"
+ ALT="$&gt;$"></span></var>.
+</li>
+</ol>
