Yes, well, maybe that was mostly my fault. And in fact, maybe the message footers WOULD take more bandwidth than the occasional reply to an archive question. And by the way, do those UNSUBSCRIBE messages sent to the list address with no message body actually cause an unsubscribe? If not maybe that would be a good enhancement to ezmlm. And how about non-subscribed senders getting the list info delivered to them on their first message, and getting automatically subscribed on their second? Now that would be ez. Probably should head for the ezmlm list, but figured a brief mention here first would be ok. -Kurt Bigler > > At 03:16 PM 03-13-2003, Kurt Bigler wrote: >> Just posted this 2 days ago, here it is again... >> >> http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/ >> >> or to save a step... >> >> http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=sqwebmail&r=1&w=2 >> >> >> >> People are asking this fairly regularly now.
