3.41. What variables can I use in the headers and footers added to messages by Mailman?

real_name 

    This is the value of the real_name configuration variable
    in the General options category.

list_name 

    This is the canonical name of the mailing list.  In other words
    it's the posting address of the list.

        Note: For backward compatibility, the variable _internal_name is
    equivalent.

host_name 

    This is the domain name part of the email address for this list.

web_page_url 

    This is the base url for contacting the list via the web.  It can
    be appended with listinfo%(list_name)s to yield the
    general list information page for the mailing list.

description 

    The brief description of the mailing list.

info 

    This is the full description of the mailing list.

cgiext 

    This is the extension added to CGI scripts.  It might be the empty
    string, .cgi, or something else depending on how your site
    is configured.

Each of these is used in the form %(fieldname) where fieldname is one of the names given above.

For example, the simple footer that gives the mailing list name, the posting address, and the listinfo address is as follows: 

   _______________________________________________
   %(real_name)s mailing list
   %(real_name)s@%(host_name)s
   %(web_page_url)slistinfo%(cgiext)s/%(_internal_name)s
