Folks,
Orion has responded to this request at length.
The response was simple. If you can't remember the email address you
subscribed to the list with, how are they going to figure it out? If
you use the unsubscribe form, and it does not work, then guess what?
You are trying to unsubscribe the wrong address.
This problem is your responsibility, not Orion's (that is my opinion,
not Orion's). This is a general problem with mailing lists.
The only thing that I would recommend to Orion is that some mailing
list software can append the user's email address to the message as
it is sent out. This way, the user can just go to the end of the
message to find the address they need to unsubscribe. This would be
a very nice enhancement.
