	The standard Mailman location is 
/usr/local/mailman/lists/<name_of_list>/en/verify.txt.

	If someone has taken Mailman and modified it for your platform, 
they may have chosen a different directory structure.  In that case, 
you should contact whatever group or person modified the Mailman 
installation for your platform.


	One thing to consider is that these files are only read on 
startup.  You need to use bin/mailmanctl to stop and then restart the 
qrunner processes, in order to pick up changes in the template files.
