I'm sorry I can't get to sourceforge. Here's a small but useful patch to be
able to use %(name)s in subscribeack.txt so as to write an answer looking
like

"Welcome to the YYYY mailin list. Your address <%(name)s> has been added
succesfully...." where %(name)s is the email of the subscriber. 

I hope you can retain this patch in the official distrib.

btw, why write 'name' when it's actually an email ;)
