The problem isn't the missing </option>
It's the missing "action" in the <form> tag.
Edit the page in question and insert the URL of that page as the
"form_action".
---this does not work in Arachne---
<form>
<select name="submode.2">
<option value="1" selected>Individual Emails
<option value="2" >Daily Digest
<option value="3" >No Mail/Web Only
<option value="0">Unsubscribe Member
</select>
</form>

--This works in Arachne---
<form action="sample.htm">
<select name="submode.2">
<option value="1" selected>Individual Emails
<option value="2" >Daily Digest
<option value="3" >No Mail/Web Only
<option value="0">Unsubscribe Member
</select>
</form>
