 i know this will sound silly but you should know you can use a ruler
 to draw the line straight with your mouse...
 
 If you dont have a ruler, use the keyboard or your head! ;)

It's called a discussion list. It's fully optional, and after you choose 
to subscribe you can also choose to unsubscribe.

Have you tried the link included at the bottom of every post?:

Dear Frank,

Don't Panic! Evidently you checked the box to subscribe you to the use-list,
not realising how extremely helpful and chatty the good folks on this list
really are :) There are two solutions. You can unsubscribe, by going here:

http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

But then of course you'll be missing all these wonderful new potential
friends. The alternative is to set your list preference to digest mode. This
has the effect of gathering up all the individual posts into one or two
magazine daily posts. This is a much more manageable way to receive the
list. You can set your preferences by going to the same url, if you scroll
to the bottom of the page you will see the area where you can manage your
list subscription.

If you have any problems at all just write me, off list, and I'll be happy
to help you. I'm the listmom, and my email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Regards, and welcome,

Heather

Don't worry. You can have two or three options.
1) unsubscribe from the list
2) use the digest mode like Heather suggested.
3) Get a new email account. There are many free services but the one I use 
for Armbase is simple and cheap.

You can get a domain, for example frankknox.com is available and simply get 
mail from www.purplecloud.net for 4pounds/year and that oncludes webmail. 
The Support from James and the lads at PC.net is excellent. If they have 
any downtime, eg 10 hours. They up your mail/web allocation for free.

Then, if you use a PC I would recommend something like mailwasherPro that 
you can use to delete unwanted mail serverside; or indeed simply use 
webmail via PC.net and delete them. Having multiple mailboxes on a hosting 
package allows you to selectively download you mail. IE my mail address is 
bob@ however I use [EMAIL PROTECTED] and can leave that until I require the download.

I think that i won`t be interested in this product at all, if this keeps 
up! I am not in some office just waiting to here about the next move on 
the pc, for the day. i was thinking about learning how to program my own 
software! i am a physically disabled vietnam vet, just trying to learn how 
to get by in todays world. can you give me any advice on this subject? i

the emails. sorry to take it out on you! but i thought you might be able 
to help me, or set me on to  the right track, on who to talk to.

OK runrev is simple to use really simple. My first app was a file 
transfer app that directory walked and found all my microscope files and 
moved them from one server to my desk-machine. have a look 
http://www.gla.ac.uk/~rh82p/confocal.jpg
And have a look at the rev file. Download it from http://www.gla.ac.uk/~rh82p/

I did this in a day-2days without EVER programming anything before (NOTE: 
with the help of Klaus and Sarah and others on the list).

All the best in the future
Bob

Hummm,
This reminds some time back when I was with a email group you could sign up 
for email, and like here that also had a unsubscribe link more obvious 
than here and we had people emailing the group complaining about so many 
emails. Some would call the users names and yell at the incidence persons 
that joined. And their favorite statement Was UNSUBSCRIBE ME NOW like we 
could do something.

Well I hope this is an isolated incident and not a common problem.
