Dear Xuehai Qian,

The procedure to stop receiving [email protected]'s messages is easy. You 
should send an e-mail (content doesn't matter) to the address: 
[email protected]. You will receive an answer requesting that 
you confirm your wish to unsubscribe by sending an email to a complicated 
address. Sending an email to the complicated address will remove your email 
address from the mailing list. For more information you can visit 
http://listes.epfl.ch/doc_en.cgi?liste=simflex.

Regards,
Pejman
