Thanks!! I understand the purpose of the confirmation, I just want the ability to turn it off. It is okay if users get unsubscribed from my list because of a spooked request.

E-mail unsub requests require confirmation to prevent spoofed requests from succeeding. The user can avoid the confirmation by providing his/her password with the e-mailed unsubscribe command, but this only works if an unsubscribe command is mailed to the listname-request address. Mail to the listname-leave or listname-unsubscribe address is not parsed for commands and is treated as if it just contained a plain 'unsubscribe'. Send mail with subject 'help' (w/o the quotes) to the listname-request address for more info on the unsubscribe command. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
