This is for Mailman 2.1 or later

Create a directory as mailman.mailman called
~mailman/lists/your-list-name/language-of-choice/

where your-list-name is the name of your list
and language-of-choice would be "en" for english  "de" for german, etc.

Copy the file  subscribeack.txt

from

~mailman/templates/language-of-choice/

to

~mailman/lists/your-list-name/language-of-choice/

Edit subscribeack.txt with your favorite text editor so it contains this
on the first line:

%(welcome)s




This will leave only the contents of the welcome message that you entered in
the
web ui

Cheers!
