Bug Description

Hi,

On +editemails LP states "When should launchpad automatically subscribe you to a team’s mailing list?" and if you have selected "Always subscribe me to mailing lists. Launchpad will automatically subscribe you to a team's mailing list, even when someone else adds you to the team." you are led to believe that when a mailing list for a team is created you will be automatically subscribed to it. This is not the case. You in fact receive a notification that a mailing list was created but you have to overtly go to Launchpad and manually subscribe to the list.

Launchpad should do as advertised in the UI or the UI text should be clarified.
