Yes, all that things are working fine. And I've also found the reason 
for the missing %(host_name)s format string for the file verify.txt. In 
the file

$mailmanpath/Mailman/MailList.py

some template files get initialized with the format strings, that can be 
used inside the template files. For verify.txt the %(host_name)s format 
string was not set up as a property :-(.

I wonder wy all often used format strings aren't availabel for all 
template files. In my opinion this would be a nice feature for the next 
release or a bugfix or what ever. What can I do to make sure, that this 
is changed for the next mailman release?

Schoeppi
