Agreed. I've sent him (directly) info on how to unsubscribe which
AFAICT should work even without access to the gmail account. It
should appear here too FWIW.
It's a shame in some ways that bounces go back to the list manager
not the original sender, or I'd just bounce anything from him at my
mail server :-|
I'd be interested to see this info on how to unsubscribe without
access to the subscribed account. How does it handle the "goodbye"
confirmation message?
It's trivial, but I'm pretty sure ity should work. It does rely on
the forwarding being set up and consistent though. I'll cut'n'paste
what I said earlier:
"1. In your mail client set your email address to the problem gmail
address, and send an unsubscription request to OOo. 1a The list
manager will respond to the problem address.
2. Assuming email is being forwarded as you describe, you will
receive the confirmation email.
3. Reply to the confirmation email as directed therein.
4. Restore your proper sending address in your mail client."
(and yes, I know some of this could be short-circuited; in
particular, I vaguely recall confirmation could be completed via a
web link in the copnfirmation email, but may be wrong.)
It /should/ work, no?
Can you do steps 1 through 3 without the password of the problem account?
I have often sent email from one account via another ISP. In fact, at
work, I've configured Seamonkey to send email with my choice of work or
personal ID and it all goes out via the work SMTP server. At home, I've
got a few different accounts that all get sent through my ISPs SMTP
server. As long as you can log into a mail server, you can usually send
with any email address.
Yes, but you've configured all the accounts with the correct passwords
on all the systems, right? It's that "logging into a mail server" I'm
asking about. Suppose the problem account were [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is
real but belongs to somebody else. If I create an account of that name
under Thunderbird, and try to send mail using that identity, it asks me
to supply the password (which I can't). I therefore can't send a message
of any kind that would be received as being from that account. What am I
missing here?

To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
