Suggested links from mailarchive view to subscriber management/datatracker #3757

From Paul Aitken:

When viewing a WG archive, there seems to be no way to subscribe to the mailing list, nor a link to the WG page.

eg at https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/opsawg

Note that we plan to make list subscription a datatracker activity soon. See the mockup at https://www.ietf.org/media/documents/Mail_Subscription_Mockup_2021-10-12.pdf

Nonwithstanding the advanced proposal Robert points to, a very simple URL linking back from the mail archive to the mailing lists management info(management,subscription) page would be lovely.

I would modify Pauls request to say:

The orange in https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse// should link back to https://mailman3.ietf.org/mailman3/lists/,

and if the group has a datatracker page, then a link back to that datatracker page should be on https://mailman3.ietf.org/mailman3/lists/

Reason: not every mailing list with an archive and a mailman3 interface has a datatracker page.
