The last thing I want to say/ask about this is when you have a large mailing list are
some people so stupid as to not know how to type unsubscribe. I have halted all
mailings from my list until such point i can remove these people manually. I am
trying but getting frustrated. I have heard of some list administrators just keep
sending the list mail to people until they get it right. Am I the only one who feels
"Hey you're the idiot who signed up get yourself off if you like!"
