So apparently the issue is that although you reset your login password to a known value, it doesn't stick and reverts overnight to some other value.
Can we try to catch this bug now, which is most likely in my configuration? Which is:
Debian 12.1 Bookworm Mailman in venv running with dedicated mailman user
Is this the Debian package or installed following https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html or something else.
All I can think of is some cron may be resetting the password. If that's it, it's probably a Debian thing. Can you see if there's any cron running the Django admin changepassword command?
If you set the password with the Django admin changepassword command, does it stick?
Can you create another superuser with the Django admin createsuperuser command and does that user's password stick?
