Majordomo is the old standard Unix mailing list program. It's been used for years and years for many thousands of mailing lists without significant problems. In todays's Internet environment there are often security issues with older programs and I believe there were problems of that nature at Arachne.cz. The unsubscribe function is only broken at the Arachne.cz install. Fixing it would require an investment of time and energy that is evidently unavailable. Lets try to remember that Arachne Labs is mostly a one man show and if he doesn't have the time, energy, interest to deal with a problem then there's not much we can do. Maybe we could all chip in some beer money and hire him to pay attention for a day or two ? Sam Ewalt Croswell, Michigan, USA -- Arachne V1.70;rev.3, NON-COMMERCIAL copy, http://arachne.cz/
