Dear Maintainer,

I ran
   dpkg-reconfigure mailman3-web
and created the Postorius superuser, using a password with a quotation mark

Instead of initialising the user, it threw a python exception:

I think the setup should sanitise its arguments a bit better.

Hi,


I think this bugreport is documenting don't use   '  in password.
