Hi All,
My sincere apologies for the seeming spam message.
We (Post Graduate Students) have just been enrolled into a 5-day SciLab 
Training Workshop at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, facilitated by Prof. S. 
O. Enibe, who asked us to get subscribed and also seek answers from the SciLab 
community. Hence the messages and questions.
However, I commend those who are cautious about the possibility of spamming, 
and should retain such caution, going forward.
Many thanks and best regards,
Wofai 
PSThanks Federico, for your brilliant feedback.
​

Wofai, Chinagorom, Apebo,
 
 I also started to answer but I'm puzzled by the batch of short questions 
originating from new subscribers with a Gmail address.

It looks like spamming:
searching for messages in the archives,
posting something inspired by that to appear legitimate, then posting a link to 
a commercial or fishing URL. 
 

 Yes, but since there is no url redirection in the messages, i would rather 
wonder about some people in the same academic class, with some questions 
feeding an exam session...
 And we, feeding their answer.
 ;-)
 Anyway, i personnaly do not see a reason to take 20 s to answer to some 
subscribers that did not take 5 s to put a subject and  that evidently did not 
spend 15 more seconds to look around the official website and all redirections, 
noticeably to the online documentation.
 
 
I guess that it might also be an exam about how to create a robot creating an 
account and spamming a test target.
 The last question was about how to make the robot unsubscribing. And one have 
failed.
 ;-)
 
 Now, i am aware that this is just an how-to take 5 mn to wonder and comment 
about not taking 20 s to answer to some improbable spam..
 
 
Best,
 Samuel
 
PS: IMHO, the best way to deter such practice is to shortly and massively 
answer in private to such mails.
