That was one of my suggestions.
However, it would appear that a number of people
aren't even noticing the Topica link at the bottom
of each list e-mail, so it would be nice to catch those
as well.
It would appear that Topica already has code to
trap these kind of messages, as I got an automated
response from their suggestion e-mail address
with the instructions for unsubscribing because
I happened to have that word in my subject line.
