Hey, Folks--
This is the first time I've had to unsubscribe an ezmlm list (and
particularly [EMAIL PROTECTED]), and I wanted to deliver my opinion on
the unsubscribe process, as a sort of counterpoint to all the "How do I get
off this list?" mails.
It was almost trivially simple. I checked a random message to find the
"Mailing-List: contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]; run by ezmlm" header, sent
a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and got back a mail mentioning
various addresses. Sent another blank email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], got back a confirmation message. To
confirm that I wanted the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] removed from
[EMAIL PROTECTED], I simply replied to that message, and didn't even
bother to blank out the Subject: line or body. Presto! I just got a removal
message.
I'm sure many people here already think it's easy enough to subscribe. But
since those who don't have trouble unsubbing rarely write in with their
experiences or to ask for help, I thought I'd supply at least one
data-point on that side, just for balance.
I'm leaving my job at Online Partners, so if you need to reply, please send
it to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Peace out.

From the Jargon File: (v4.0.0, 25 Jul 1996)
finger trouble /n./
Mistyping, typos, or generalized keyboard incompetence (this is
surprisingly common among hackers, given the amount of time they
spend at keyboards). "I keep putting colons at the end of statements
instead of semicolons", "Finger trouble again, eh?".
