Subscribing and unsubscribing is not an automatic process. When you (un)subscribe on the webpage, a mail is sent to the list maintainer, Toby Rider <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> who then adds you to the list or deletes you from it.
It is very important that you know the exact e-mail address that you used to subscribe to the list. It's quite possible that you used a forwarding address. However, I believe that now you can only post to the list from an address that is subscribed, so that's probably not it.
It is also possible that Toby has not yet found the time to process your request. Try to mail him personally. In the past, Toby has asked for some volunteers to help him maintaining this list, processing (un)subscribe requests, etc. Someone else on the list, I don't remember who, and yours truly have answered, but I haven't heard from Toby for a *long* time. So Toby, are you still alive or what? ;-) And do you still want help?
Kind regards,
bert

I too have tried to unsubscribe, to no avail.
I looked at the source of the web page, and may have found the problem.
(Those of you who are programmers, please double check).
If I am right, this says if the button is checked, you subscribe; if it
is unchecked, you unsubscribe. However, the form uses a radio button,
not a checkbox, so to unsubscribe, you check the button that has to be
unchecked in order to unsubscribe....

What on earth does it take to get off of this list? I'm travelling and don't have the time to dig through the traffic this list generates, especially with dial-up speeds. I've tried four times over the last two months to unsubscribe without success (obviously). Help!
