Strong vote here for moving the "options" further up the page.
Those who are just looking can scroll past the "if you're a current
member" stuff or not, I don't care, but I want my subscribers to
see the "<listname> Subscribers" section immediately without
scrolling.  Also, yes, I think the title should be clear.
In fact, I think the "Visit Subscriber List" should not be in this
section.

In fact, I'd go as far as, up near the top, adding a new major
section (perhaps right after About <listname>):

Unsubscribing

To unsubscribe from <listname>, enter your subscription email
address:
	<textbox> <Unsubscribe button>
----	

and then I'd probably move "<listname> Subscribers" up there too.
Service your current customers higher on the page; let people who
want to subscribe be the ones who scroll...
