Bug Description

For announcement mailing lists, which get only one or
two mails each year, a monthly password reminder is
too much. The list administrator can toggle the
send_reminder once each year, but that's error prone.

The attached patch adds a list specific option
send_reminder_frequency with the values monthly
(default), yearly and quaterly.

the mailpasswds script is changed to ask for this
option.

I didn't yet figure out, how to update existing
lists ...

We really don't need this kind of bug triage: "I don't care about checking, but I close it anyway". Reopened.
