>> In other cases, with out passwords and with or without poster.lst users
should only type: unsubscribe <<
Yes that would be the theory. If you try it, you'll find out that WITH
poster.lst and password, the ONLY way to unsubscribe is:
a) to specify the password in the unsubscribe subject line, AND
b) to be ON the poster.lst
That is a bug. Imail should:
1. Check the subject line for "unsubscribe" - if found, it should proceed
with the unsubscribe (it should treat the unsubscribe from subject the SAME
way as it treats the unsubscribe command sent to the list server!)
2. ONLY check the password and poster.lst before actually "posting" a
message.
Currently, the processing order is REVERSED.
It makes absolutely no sense that people have to know/specify the password
AND even be on the poster.lst to unsubscribe themselves. The don't need
that information if they send the unsubscribe command to the list server
itself.
I hope this step-by-step listing makes it easier to understand the actual
issue at hand.
