Re: PM Discussion list

2006-10-05 Thread CTM info
Sead,

Jérôme had forwarded your manual unsubscribe request last week and I
looked into it immediately. However, having found that you are
positively, absolutely not registered under:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]

or any entry with your first, last or complete name Sead Lejlic, I had
assumed that you had unsubscribed yourself. Apparently not.

Following your message to the list this morning I looked again, and
cannot find you under the above searches. You must have subscribed under
another e-mail address that might get forwarded to you or so, but we can
only unsubscribe known entries !

Please contact us off of the list via direct e-mail with the information
and we will solve this, as it seems that our web server's form system is
not processing queries correctly.

Best regards,

jean michel/ctm qa

So, here is  the deal:

I want to be taken off from the list and since I have no other
possibility, I will have no option but to report CTM dev as spammer.

In addition, if this is not solved asap. I will have my autoreply
setup to flood the list. I am sorry that this will affect all of you
and certainly will not make me popular but, at least I hope that
this, as the final measure will initiate those who should know how to

Marco,

Obviously I am not at all THAT much respected man, otherwise this  
situation would be promptly solved.


I hate the idea of spamming the list and it really is not something I  
would love to do the same as I hate it being done to me.


The fact is that right now I am denied my very basic right to decide  
if I want to be part of a list or not and as far as I am concerned,  
the level of frustration I have with this situation is pretty much  
the same as I have with all these pill pushers out there on the net.


All of this has nothing to do with PM as a product. I still think it  
is the best mail program out there (eventhough I don't use it anymore  
due to a glitch with my local ascended characters and poor Unicode  
implementation that's nowhere on the development priority list to be  
fixed, but that I could understand).


Best regards,
Sead

I understand your frustration, but punishing the other members of the
list is not the solution.  Hopefully Jerome will unsubscribe you, but I
hope that until then you just filter the list messages directly to your
trash or blacklist them in your spam settings.  Either of these
solutions will minimize your aggravation while not harming other
innocent parties.

No, I am not sure at all about anything.
What I am sure, however, is that I have unsubscribed from THIS  
address at least DOZEN times and I am still subscribed from THIS mail  
address (otherwise I could not post from THIS address).




did-you try too to unsubscribe with this form:

This is an ongoing thing. It is not like I tried to unsubscribed

PM Discussion List and SpamAssasin

2006-10-04 Thread Don V. Zahniser
Hi, All- 

Starting yesterday (that I first noticed), approximately half of the
messages from the PowerMail discussion list are tagged by SpamAssassin
(run by my ISP) as spam.  I was able to adjust my filters so that the PM
messages wind up in my preferred folder, but they still have the subject
tagging and spam analysis text incorporated in the message.  

A couple of the issues I found:

1) This appears to be the SpamAssassin rule that tags the PM list messages:

 10 RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET RBL: Received via a relay in bl.spamcop.net
   [Blocked - see http://www.spamcop.net/bl.shtml?212.98.36.147]

2) Whatever software is altering the messages prior to my receiving them
is chopping out a bunch of header material, including the 'Reply-to:'
data.  As I was using this to identify my PM list messages, the tagged
ones went into my Spam folder.  

The second item really bothers me.   

It looks as though I may have to disable the SpamAssassin filtering,
which up until now has been very helpful.

Any thoughts?

 - Don

The point here is not if I like that food or not, but that this food  
is infected with salmonella. But, then, who is talking about  
airliners here, I am talking about list server which sends spam. From  
the moment I sent my first unsubscribe message to the list server  
some two weeks ago all correspondence received from the list server I  
consider unsolicited.


And, it turns out that this is not the first time it happens... And,  
unless I don't manage to raise awareness about it and list owners  
don't do something serious in order to solve the problem, it will  
happen to other people at some point.

Received and email stating I was off the list and I received no more emails.

resubscribed using the same format link.

Users on the list I manage have problems when the email address they
originally subscribed with is different from the one they send with, or
if their email is forwarded thru a different server. It looks like you
are using a .mac account, but are sending from an eznet.net server. Try
sending the unsubscribe subject message directly from the .mac server
and not thru your eznet.net account with your .mac account as the return

Probably... Or at least until I stop using the product (unlikely in the near 
future).  :-)

At this point you're simply sounding like a whiney baby. Give Jerome a chance 
to look into it. If you consider this list spam, mark it as such and it will go 
into the SPAM folder or simply filter it to the trash for the time being. Trust 
me, you don't want to flood us with email, then you would be considered outside 
your ISPs use agreement and could possibly have your account yanked. For now, 
just give it a rest. If the problem isn't solved in a couple of days, then 
maybe you need to rethink things. However, 99.99% of us on this list can't help 
you, we don't control the list or have admin privs on this list, so give us a 
break.

Re(2): PM Discussion list

2006-10-04 Thread Marlyse Comte
It's not the first time I see somebody going up in fire and explosion
with blaming others and threats and all the stuff - but be aware - at
least 90% of the time it's the user's error and not the ones he blames.

I understand that you think that you've unsubscribed from the list, but
you never describe HOW you went about to unsubscribe and what exactly
you did which didn't work as expected.

Basic law if you want true help is to EXACTLY note the steps undertaken,
i.e. did you try unsubscribing from their list or directly from an email
or did you just send CTM an email requesting it being done?

What WORKS - and I'd be truly surprised if it doesn't work for you as
quite a single case, but yes, it can happen and in such a case give CTM
a little time to track the problem and route all PM discussion list
email directly into your spam folder - anyway, what USUALLY WORKS just
dandy is to use the button at the bottom of each email which was
received from the discussion list - that little arrow button, click and
hold onto there and you have various options.: select LIST-UNSUBSCRIBE
and you should be just fine on your way of getting rid of us all.

Truly, threatening to flood other users is not the way to go and is not
even the way to go to get some attention.

Happy unsubscribing.
