Log in as superuser (list owner does not allow you to manage users),
click on the the Users tab (this is visible on the list of lists page;
the Users menu for the list itself does NOT provide the "manage user"
functionality), find the User for the member in question, and click
the Manage button on the right hand side.

You could also do it with "mailman shell", but I don't know the exact
APIs.

It *may* be possible to do with naive SQL queries but I'm not sure
about that -- there are various relations and indicies you may to
update as well, and you have to know the ins and outs of the tables
because there isn't a straightforward user record with a text record
for "email".  An Address is not just a string, and the User-Address
relation is one-to-many.  All that is managed automatically by the
Python models in Mailman.

I can't seem to confirm the superuser's email address. I get the confirmation link and when I click it, the confirm button shows up. However, when I click confirm it immediately goes to the login page and when I try to login it sends another confirmation. Its an unending loop.
