Hello David If, as it seems there may be, there is a problem with the server, can I request that people please use gor...@mac-access.net, and let me know that they wish to be removed. If the command isn’t working, (and I shall test it out), then clearly something is set wrong. However, I’d appreciate it if people would please keep a civil tongue in their head. I’d also appreciate people keeping in mind that they expressed a wish to be ported over and, as a result, they were ported over.
If people have now changed their minds, that’s fine. But don’t start yelling and screaming at me. I’m much more likely to try and help somebody who is civl and polite, than somebody who goes off the deep end. I’ve had a few like that today and, if I get any more, somebody’s going to get both barrels! As for you, David, if you now wish to be unsubscribed, if you tried to remove yourself and it didn’t work, please do me the courtesy of contacting me off list. Same goes for anybody else. And I will do what I can to help. However, finally, keep in mind that the command set has changed with the introduction of a ew server. So, if you wish to leave, please send a blank message to: mac-access-le...@mac-access.net that should, and I use the word guardedly, should, do the trick. I shall test it now. ======================================== My compliments and kindest regards Gordon Smith: <gor...@mac-access.net> Accessibility & Information Technology Support Specialist. ———————————————————— On 27 May 2015, at 11:42, David Griffith <d.griff...@btinternet.com> wrote: I have again followed these instruction completely as laid out, and I am getting no response from the server telling me that I am unsubscribed.
