This capability exists. Go to the web admin interface "Edit the public
HTML pages and text files" link and edit the "Welcome email text file".
This ability to edit this template via the GUI was added in 2.1.6.

Or if you have access to your server, you can make an edited version of
the subscribeack.txt template per
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.048.htp>.

I meant a per-mailing-list option. Modifying the message for all mailing
lists in the server is not a possibility.

If you edit the template through a list's admin GUI, the editited template
will be used only for that list.

Edited templates can apply sitewide, per domain or per list as described
at <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.048.htp>.
When edited templates are created via the admin GUI, they apply only to the
list that created them.
