Mark,
Yes, you are correct. I realized that I was referring to the wrong fix
after sending my message. I certainly didn't want to insinuate that
you gave me bad information.
That aside, the question still stands. Why are these fixes needed to
force the templates to display as it seems they should be default?
What about a list adminstrator who doesn't have full run of the system
to make these fixes? An administrator who does have full run would
have to know some python and understand the way Mailman works on the
backend. I guess that is the hope for an adminstrator, isn't it?

The modification to MailList.py is something that you suggested awhile

This time, it didn't seem to work and broke it.The problem was the
email sent to new list owners had the list address, but didn't
complete the actual address. Instead, it results in this:
Send list messages to:
%(emailaddr)s
What is the actual solutilon to the template being populated with the
actual list address. This seems like something that would be assumed
to exist in an out of the box installation.
The problem with the modification is my fault. I said to add
listinfo_url = self.getScriptUrl('listinfo', absolute=1)
but this is wrong. It needs to be
listinfo_url = self.GetScriptURL('listinfo', absolute=1)
However, this has nothing to do with the mail sent to the owner of a
new list. This particular modification was to add a definition of
'listinfo_url' to the substitutions in the verify.txt template for the
confirmation message sent to someone subscribing when the policy
includes 'confirm'. The same modification is also required when the
verify.txt template is used for an address change confirmation.
Adding %(emailaddr)s to the newlist.txt template requires a different
modification to MailList.py.
