Jeff,
Via the administrative Web interface, you can change the footer. There is one footer for non-digest options and one for Digest Options.
You will probably want to edit the text of documents in <mailman-home>/templates/en - lots of them have references to the web interface.
There are messages in the archive about how to handle changes to the templates. Basically if you change them in the same directory, the changes affect all lists and will be overwritten when you upgrade. If you change them and put them under each list you have, they will only affect that list and not be overwritten during an upgrade.
Or you can have a site or domain specific templates which are not changed by upgrading. The template use hierarchy is (from the comments in $prefix/Mailman/Utils for the findtext() function for MM 2.1.3):

# 2. the domain-specific language directory
# templates/<list.host_name>/<language>
#
# 3. the site-wide language directory
# templates/site/<language>
#
# 4. the global default language directory
# templates/<language>

Greetings
mailman newb here.
I'm running mailman with OSX server. and there are many things i don't want my members to see. For instance, I would like to edit the footer of each list message.
the default message leads users to the subscription page.
I would like to disable access to the web interface.
Do not forget that much of your list administration is most conveniently done through the web admin GUI. Manipulating your web server's httpd.conf can be used to restrict access to all or part of the Mailman web interface; in the extreme do not run a web server or make no changes to httpd.conf to allow access.
