Not everyone runs a graphical machine, John.  Some are blind and use
Lynx because it works well with speech systems.  Lynx doesn't support
https.  Others are using old, marginal systems (hey, isn't that one
of the strengths of Linux?) and don't have the resources to run
Xwindows... they also must use Lynx.  I could go on.... but the
point is, if you force someone to do it ONE way, if someone has
difficulty doing it that way, they are out of luck.  Isn't that 
what the bulk of the talk here is about; how to do it various ways?
Of course, there is a solution... they can ask the list to be removed,
and one of the folks at RedHat who reads the list can do so.  Not
the BEST solution, but A solution.

No, you can email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the subject
"unsubscribe." However, you still have to get your password from
them somehow, and I don't know if there's a way to get it to email
you back your password. I still don't see what the problem is with
firing up Netscape and visiting that web site!
