If you spell the list name as just `mylist', then the email hostname will be
taken from DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST and the url will be taken from DEFAULT_URL (as
defined in your Defaults.py file or overridden by settings in mm_cfg.py).

Confirmed. Will fix.

Actually, I think this usage is correct. See for example dictionary. reference. com/browse/ -ee>. For a transitive verb in
<http://
English, (verb)-er refers to the subject of the verb and (verb)-ee
refers to the object. In this case - admin Mass Subscribe - the admin
is the subscriber and the people being subscribed are the subscribees.

True, but I don't think the change is significant enough to warrant
breaking translations. I'll consider for Mailman 2.2.

True, but I don't think the change is significant enough to warrant
breaking translations. I'll consider for Mailman 2.2. (Note that the
translated string in this case is 5 paragraphs long and removing this
one word breaks the entire translation.)
