In Mailman/Cgi/Auth.py in the definition of loginpage find
if msg:
msg = FontAttr(msg, color='#ff0000', size='+1').Format()
and append
print '401 Unauthorized\n'
to make it
if msg:
msg = FontAttr(msg, color='#ff0000', size='+1').Format()
print '401 Unauthorized\n'
This is entirely untested, but should work for both failed admin and
admindb logins.
