> 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!"
