Description

[Summary of a "how can I unsubscribe" question from the german ML]

Someone had problems to unsubscribe and noticed two problems:

a)
https://lists.opensuse.org/manage/lists/users.lists.opensuse.org/ has a form to subscribe without an account, but it doesn't allow to unsubscribe that way. -> It would be nice if that form also had an "unsubscribe" button.

b)
https://lists.opensuse.org/manage/lists/users.lists.opensuse.org/ -> click "Login" -> click "register on openSUSE mailing lists" results in a page saying "registration closed" (because we enforce login with an identity provider (openSUSE, github etc.) -> It would be nice to change text on the "registration closed" page to make it more helpful - basically something like "please login with your openSUSE/github/... account instead."

I have no idea how hard these things are to implement. If they are easy, please do them ;-) and/or tell me where I should open a feature request upstream if this needs upstream work.

a) does need upstream work, and since it's in the /manage section of the site, it's postorius.

b) is fairly easy to fix here: https://github.com/openSUSE/lists-o-o/blob/master/webui-templates/accounts/signup_closed.html ;)

I opened https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/issues/468 for a)

Your fix for b) looks goood :-) Feel free to close the ticket as soon as you have deployed it.

Hi there - and a Happy and Healthy 2022!

I'm currently closing old tickets which did not see much change.
If the main concern still exists and should be handled, please re-open by just replying to this Email.

Thanks in advance,
Lars
