What I see is indistinguishable from spam but with more annoying intention (I get
into this in detail below) amounting to harassment. I'm surprised that this behavior
is tolerated and not identified as a source of unkind communication.
Anyhow, you can make the ML mail you your password and then use it to
unsubscribe.
That will put an end to the annoying [Hangout - NYLXS] mails consisting of
broken
up threads and a good amount of spam.
In my case that did not work. At first I couldn't reach the Mailman server at all to
get to the web front end. Now I can get to it but I'm told that I am not a subscriber
because his Mailman instance doesn't see my email address on its subscriber list for
that "Hangout" mailing list. Messages to vill...@mrbrklyn.com are going to me, and
correspondingly I've been receiving messages with vill...@mrbrklyn.com's Mailman
password.
Therefore I believe that ru...@mrbrklyn.com has set up a forwarding address of
"vill...@mrbrklyn.com" and made it so that email to that address is routed to me. I
can only imagine that the benefit to him is that if anyone he does this to complains,
he can falsely claim that they're not subscribed when clearly they are receiving the
unsolicited messages. In other words, this is intentional.
I tried unsubscribing vill...@mrbrklyn.com from that mailing list and apparently he
re-subscribed that account back to that mailing list. So this would seem to be an
intentionally annoying. He knows what is doing, knows it is unwanted, and keeps doing it.
