Only if the MUA that processes the mailto cares about the case of
'subject',and not all MUAs will even recognize the subject= fragment
at all, but this is moot anyway - see below.


><A href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">SUBSCRIBE</A>

You can't put HTML tags in msg_footer or digest_footer because these
are placed in text/plain parts of the message, so what the user sees
is literally what you put above. It is much better to just put
something like:

Subscribe: <mailto:%(list_name)[EMAIL PROTECTED](host_name)s>

which many MUAs will render as a clickable link anyway. Note that if
you mail to the -subscribe (or -join) address rather than the -request
address, the subject doesn't matter.

Also note that the utility of putting a 'subscribe' link in mail that
presumably is sent only to people who are already subscribers is
debatable.

Finally note that subscribe and unsubscribe links are already included
in the RFC-2369 (List-*) headers of list messages unless you turn them
off.
