Can't get Mailing List subscription working.

    Hi all,
    I am having trouble getting the subscribe to mailing list feature working in Expression Engine.

    My template looks like this:

    {embed="main/header1"}
    <meta name="Description" c>
    <meta name="Keywords" c Church, Presbyterian">
    {embed="main/header2"}
    {embed="main/navbar"}
    
    {exp:channel:entries channel="subscription" limit="1"}
    <div id="content2">
    <div id="Image">
     {page_image}</div>
    <div id="Content">
     <div id='subscribe_form'>
     {exp:mailinglist:form list="mailing_test"}
            <input type="text" name="email" value=""></p>
            <input type="submit" value="submit"></p>
    {/exp:mailinglist:form}
            </div>
    {/exp:channel:entries}
    </div>
    </div>
    
    {embed="main/footer"}

    You can see the mailing list form in there.
    The mailing_test mailing list is created, and has three valid email addresses in it.
    I have verified my email settings are correct.
    I can send a test email from Tools > Communicate. The messages arrived as expected.

    When I click the Submit button, the URL changes to <my site>/index.php- a blank page- then immediately back to my subscription template. No confirm subscription emails are sent.
    What have I missed?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.
    James.
