Hi Mick,
I take it I didn't make myself perfectly clear. I understand that this is issued per user (thus the name personalization). At the bottom of my lists mails it reads (using user_optionsurl) http://jo.birdsense.com/mailman/options/[listname]/mburton%40jo.birdsens e.com - this is my mail systems address (jo.birdsense.com).
What I would expect is http://www.birdsense.com/mailman/options/[listname]/mburton%40jo.birdsen se.com which is my web server's address. Note the www instead of jo in the address.
This is what is shown at the bottom of the mailman-users list mails - http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/mburton%40jo.birdse nse.com. Again I would suspect that it might want to read www.python.org instead of mail.python.org, although I am not sure of this one as I am not the admin for that system and really don't know how they have it setup and configured.
Am I completely missing something here? Are my expectations that it would use the web server's address unreasonable?
Thanks, Mike

Is there a reason that user_optionsurl returns the mailers address and domain instead of the web sites address and domain? Is this intentional or should a bug report be generated on this? If it's intentional, what is the reasoning?
I guess I don't quite understand; the whole point of "the user's options" is that it's per-user, yes...what would you expect?...
