I.e., we know it should be a template, but it currently isn't.
That's fine but it doesn't explain why I have received messages that were built by a template for some subscription requests. In other words, why is there a template being used in some instances and on others a "mailman notify command" is being used?
Are there different methods for people to use to request a subscription? Please understand that I'm new to mailman 3 and don't have knowledge of its source code. From reading some of the messages that have been sent by this list, I assume it's written in python, which is a language I have not year learned. I'm asking this because I help to administer several different lists and there are some other moderators who have very limited technical skills. I try to help them the best I can, which is why I'm trying to understand why these messages seem to differ so that I can explain it to others.
By the way, Brian at EMWD has been extremely helpful to me already and, as he stated, he informed me that this is an issue with Mailman 3 so I thought I'd try getting the answer directly from this group.
Thank you for your time. I do recognize and appreciate the time and effort that goes into creating and maintaining open source software.
