I want to change the email address to/from which I subscribe to the ALUG mailing list. However, the personal admin page only allows me to change my password. I could unsubscribe and resubscribe but I wondered if there were not a neater method?

I shouldn't think so. As far as the list server is concerned you, Ian Bell, do not exist. Only the email address is acknowledged.
So it would be unthinkable, to the list server, to change this.
Therefore, I guess, your best (and probably only) option is to unsubscribe the current email address and subscribe the new one.
Admittedly it would be logically possible for the admin page software to pop up a dialogue "Change my subscribed email address" and then, behind the scenes, silently do the unsub/resub thing, but I have never met this!
Best wishes, Ted.
