If *properly* unsubscribing from the list does not work, what makes you
think doing it *wrong* will work?
I am not talking about the people who properly attempt to unsubscribe,
and are complaining that they can not get off the list.
But, there is a (too) large population of people that send *REPEATED*
messages to the mailing list with a body coinsisting of
unsubsacribe
This will *never* work, and should not be done. Of course, despite my
posting the proper way to unsubscribe, someone twice attemepted to
unsubscribe and failed since the sent the request to the list instead of
the list adminstrator.
There is no excuse for this common annoyance. If people would take 5
seconds to RTFM this discussion would not be taking place.
