I have posted this question to the list before, but have never resolved it.
I am looking at the files in the template directory, specifically newlist.txt and verify.txt. The newlist file is the information sent to list owners when the list is set up. The verify file is the information sent to confirm an email address when a person subscribes to a list that requires confirmation.
I want to make some changes to this information, which affects all lists. I can make some changes, but some don't seem to work. The most significant is the Python strings that parse information into links, specifically %(listinfo_url)s and %(emailaddr)s . If I insert %(emailaddr)s into the newlist.txt file, when I generate a new list, the exact text %(emailaddr)s shows in the message and it doesn't render it as [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I insert into the verify.txt file, I get the same result. My confusion comes in when I see that these strings are used successfully in other template files.
What gives? Is there something contextual about the use of these strings that makes them unuseable in other templates?
