That's unfortunate. At this point, what's the point of getting them if they won't give you any useful information as to who doesn't want the list mail they requested. But it's always been clear that AOL assumes everyone outside is a spammer. They probably can't get their minds around the idea that some of their own customers subscribe to lists and then mark them as spam when they no longer want them rather than properly unsubscribing. And that we, as responsible list owners, want to get them off our lists. I know some will disagree but if it comes to it, then I just make it clear that I don't accept AOL users as subscribers. If they want to subscribe, they will have to do so from a "real" ISP. > Messageid still works, for whatever reason it's the one piece of > header info that isn't redacted at this point. -- Larry Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.stonejongleux.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
