Is the form pure HTML or the Mailman form itself? If it is pure HTML, they no longer work after spam improvements in 2.1.16 and must use the mailman form.
Something like:
<MM-Subscribe-Form-Start> <table> <tr><td>Your e-mail address:</td><td><MM-Subscribe-Box></td></tr> <tr><td>Your name (optional):</td><td><mm-fullname-box></td></tr> <!-- Optional Password Fields (can leave out for public lists as Mailman auto-generates) --> <!-- Password reminders can always be requested through web interface --> <!-- Most likely only to be used with lists with private archives or subscription lists --> <!-- <tr><td>Password:</td><td><MM-New-Password-Box></td></tr> --> <!-- <tr><td>Confirm Password:</td><td><MM-Confirm-Password></td></tr> --> <!-- Part of the multilingual selector below --> <tr><td>Preferred language:</td><td><MM-list-langs></td></tr> </table> <p><MM-Reminder></p> <p><mm-digest-question-start> Would you like to receive list mail batched in a daily digest? <MM-Undigest-Radio-Button> No <MM-Digest-Radio-Button> Yes <mm-digest-question-end></p> <!-- MM-List-Subscription-Msg gives extra details about the subscription rules of the list --> <!-- This is optional, and will include variations between subscription rules (confirm vs confirm and approve) --> <!-- On the majority of lists this can be commented out as subscription rules will simply be confirm --> <MM-List-Subscription-Msg> <p style="text-align: center"><MM-Subscribe-Button><MM-Form-End></p>
is the mailman form (from https://github.com/quimgil/mailman-templates/blob/master/mailman-template.html#L214)

I've looked at the info page and it seems the code is pure HTML. Please see the example above and convert the subscription page to mailman.

Thank you for the information.
I'm going to re-open this task and assign it to myself, as a todo item to change it over.
@Rjd0060 you would be interested in this too.
