It never cease to amaze me how people subscribe to a mailing list then
proceed to feel outraged to see that their inboxes are filled with
messages from total strangers, discussing some subject that is the
topic of such mailing list.

Out of curiosity, I'd like to know:

- Is it because they don't know what joining a mailing list implies?
(ie receiving lots of emails, until you unsubscribe)
-Or is it because some supernatural power forced them join a mailing
list they know nothing about? (it certainly feels that way, by reading
some "get me off this list" replies. One has to wonder who subscribed
them in the first place...).

Just curious...

PS: Rob, perhaps renaming "mail list" to "discussion list" at this page
http://www.openoffice.org/support/index.html#community-support
can provide a better idea of what joining a mailing list implies?. And
perhaps a paragraph describing what a "discussion list" is about could
be copied from here?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_mailing_list#Discussion_list

Just an idea...
