Bug Description
From the "Welcome email txt file" in the option "Edit the public HTML pages and text files",
This code parse incorrectly:
Welcome to the %(description)s mailing list!
%(welcome)s
It produces:
Welcome to the %(description)s mailing list!
Here is where the welcome variable got substituted but the description variable did not. Have fun.
The description variable is not being substituted in the email body.

You have edited this template and broken it. The default English language subscribeack.txt (welcome message) template does not contain
Welcome to the %(description)s mailing list!
%(welcome)s
and the code that uses this template does not have a substitution for 'description'.
The corresponding text in the default template is
Welcome to the %(real_ name)s@ %(host_ name)s mailing list!
%(welcome)s
