That's the mailman mailing list software's normal operation. Once
a month, it emails your the plain text password as a reminder of
your subscription.
It is silly, but it is also documented on the signup page:

You may enter a privacy password below. This provides only mild
security, but should prevent others from messing with your
subscription. Do not use a valuable password as it will
occasionally be emailed back to you in cleartext.
