THis PR registers users to the mailing list during the signup process using Mailchimp.
The update requires 3 new env vars which have been added to AWS staging and production.
Mailchimp offers a Python package but all we need at this stage is a single REST API call which is called directly if the user opts to the mailing list.
The REST API uses basic authentication (user/pass) but Mailchimp only uses a single API key hence the use of a 'anystring' in the username.
Could you create a testing mailing list in Mailchimp that I can connect the staging env to? Ccurrently staging and production are pointing to the main list.
