I'm not aware that this list is moderated. Am I wrong? As far as I can see, users govern the list, and keep each other in line, without outside authority. "Owner" is not the same as "moderator". Someone else has already asked how you contrived to register for the list and then continue to both receive messages from it and post to it, if your ISP is relaying a different address to it. And here you are again posting a message, and reporting that you are receiving them. You might consult your ISP and insist upon an answer to the question, because the answer they have given you begins to be harder to believe. Another point that is missing is the mode in which you receive messages from this list. It has been asked whether you get messages one at a time, or whether you receive a daily digest, and you haven't answered that. The importance lies in that you would have to unsubscribe according to the mode to which you originally subscribed. Can you clarify how you receive messages, and if your attempts to unsubscribe match this. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
