The ones I would be concerned about are the clue-free types who scream in ALL CAPS, and insist that it is my duty to respond to their every whim and to unsubscribe them from every mailing list in existence on the entire Internet, and that because the Mailman software is associated with Python and python.org, we must obviously be the morons who run the entire thing. Right. Those are the ones I tend to reserve my harshest punishment/criticism for. But I'm trying to be a more optimistic and positive person now (after my surgery for thyroid cancer), so I guess I need to change that. Maybe once they finally start me on the synthetic thyroid replacement drugs, and I feel like I've got some energy back. -- Brad Knowles b...@shub-internet.org LinkedIn Profile: http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
[Mailman-Users] multiple lists ..
hi, I have a client who has 15 lists, 100 people in each, his hosting plan has kinda of these limitations .. he's got an email address for cancellation but it's hell to go thru the whole 15 lists removing the members that needs to cancel .. what's the best solution for this dilemma? is there a way to automatically show a message on the top of each email with the cancellation email for each list that distributed that certain email? like : to cancel please send an email to: list10-le...@domain.com ? or does the umbrella list solve it? like creating an umbrella list and any email sent to the umbrella-leave is automatically removed from the corresponding list ?? thanks .. _ Invite your mail contacts to join your friends list with Windows Live Spaces.
