The distributed GNU Mailman 2.1.34 cron/mailpasswords does not do this.
Either your site has modified this script or you have installed Mailman
from a package and the packager has modified it or you have some (very
sophisticated) software in your MTA that is able to recognize passwords
in emails and obfuscate them.

Since the latter is highly unlikely, if you replace the
cron/mailpasswords script with
<https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/view/head:/cron/mailpasswds>,
that will probably solve your issue.
