We can't the site does not work for removal.

Your email subject "[PHP-INSTALL] List-Unsubscribe" (body "[EMAIL PROTECTED]") was to "php-install@lists.php.net" not the List-unsubscribe header address: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Plus apprently its borken anyway, so try the next option on the list.

If you think it does please go remove your self and write some simple instructions. Then after a day or so rejoin the list and tell the rest

The instruction are below with every possible means of doing it, culminating in a direct human contact that will have to do it manually. If that fails the php.net webmaster will need to know about it.

The point is not to spam the list with requests to unsubscribe since we can't do anything about it, contact the site people if the site is broken.

To those playing along at home, I'm refering to:

So rather than adding to the spam, perhaps you could contribute an alternative method by which people *CAN* unsubscribe.


1) try these first:
  a) list-unsubscribe header

  b) the form at http://www.php.net/mailing-lists.php


  c) http://www.php.net/mailing-lists.php :

If you have trouble getting off from any of our mailing lists, or would like to unsubscribe from a mailing list not listed here, we have more information for you on the unsubscription page.

the "unsubscription page" is a link to http://www.php.net/unsub.php with lots of swell info

  d) http://www.php.net/contact.php

2) if #1 failed, post to the list outlining the results of 1.a - 1.d INSTEAD of a mindless YELLING spam to all the subscribers :)

Also to go along with step 2:

At the very bottom of http://www.php.net/unsub.php it says this:

"If you are receiving mail from one of the mailing lists, there should be absolutely no reason that you would be unable to unsubscribe yourself from the list, except for your ability to follow these directions. However, if you find yourself unable to unsubscribe from the mailing list, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Make sure to include the complete headers from one of the messages you have received from the mailing list. Keep in mind that there's a human being at the other end of that last email address, so you'll have to be patient."

So, I hope you find that helpful and urge anyone who is having issues to RTFM instead of spamming a list in an unreasonable and clueless manner so that I have to read it to you :)
