My Email inbox is filled with 'confirmation requests' that indicate
I was trying to remove myself from the list earlier today.
Except I wasn't.
Has anybody else been having problems?
This happens from time to time when (my speculation) some bored
teenager decides to have some fun with the list. Anyone who knows the
URL can go to the listinfo page, enter any email address and click the
unsubscribe button. Fortunately, the server requires email
confirmation before actually doing anything, and the confirmation
request only goes to the affected address, so if you just ignore the
messages, nothing will happen to your subscription.
It is a delicate balance between making it as easy as possible for
anyone who wishes to leave the list, and preventing this type of
mischief. I apologize for the inconvenience of having to wade through
messages like that, but rest assured that only the list owner (Gary
Greene) or the server administrator (myself) can actually remove
someone from a list without their permission.
