I think the error message being displayed is from
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/view/head:/Mailman/Cgi/subscribe.py#L111
which looks like it's not getting email address from the CGI, which
might suggest that something's wrong with the webserver CGI handling.
Is there some proxying or rewriting going on?

Does the email interface work and allow subscription?  I'll go test it.

Could someone broaden the description on
http://mail.teachingopensource.org/mailman/listinfo/tos
to talk about FOSS and not only "Open Source", please?

Hope that helps,
