+List texts in mlmmj
+===================
+
+List texts are stored in listdir/text. They specify the content of various
+automatic emails that Mlmmj sends. They are provided in a number of different
+languages. The language to use for a list is chosen when you run the
+mlmmj-make-ml.sh script and the appropriate files are copied into your
+listdir/text directory.

+List text format
+----------------
+
+They have the following format:
+
+- Subject line
+- Blank line
+- Body
+
+They are expected to be in UTF-8 encoding and have Unix line endings.
+
+The subject line is the text 'Subject: ' (Mlmmj expects the space, even though
+this is not ordinarily required in mail messages) followed by the subject line
+to be used for the mail. The subject line may include UTF-8 characters, which
+will automatically be escaped using the =?utf-8?q?...?= quoting mechanism.
+
+List text substitutions

+
+Both subject and body may include the following, which are substituted prior to
+sending the message:
