If the list is personalized, it may be better to use just %(user_optionsurl)s The difference is that user_optionsurl is equivalent to %(web_page_url)soptions/%(list_name)s/%(user_address)s This has the advantage of pre-providing the users email address which avoids the user's having to type it and the issues of the user not knowing which of her many addresses is actually subscribed to the list. I don't think there's normally an issue around the address being sensitive information since if the user replies to or forwards the message, her address is in the From: header of the reply/forward anyway. This might be a concern for an anonymous list, but not otherwise. >A footer link to this page may work well because it has a clearly visible >unsubscribe option. > >This leads to two questions: > >1.

(The only >related template I see is for the page that is shown *after* logging in to >the above page.) There is no template for the options login page. It is built on the fly by the loginpage() function in the Mailman/Cgi/options.py module. You can edit the strings in that module if your lists are English language only, but changing those strings breaks i18n translations of them. A more robust way to do this is to create the path messages/en/LC_MESSAGES/ and create a mailman.po in that directory with just the "translations" you need, and then use msgfmt to cerate the corresponding mailman.mo file. >2.
