Hi Wade & Mc Laughlin, What is that makes you believe that the unsubscribe mechanism fails frequently? If your assessment is based on the number of requests such a the one starting this thread, you would be working on a false premise.
In almost all of these instances it is either the subscriber's misunderstanding of, or unwillingness to follow, a relatively simple procedure. In the event of a genuine, or even a perceived, problem list moderators will try and resolve the issue, but the subscriber must make some small effort to cooperate with the moderators. This thread is a case in point. Over a period of weeks a list moderator and others have tried to communicated directly with this subscriber, but no worthwhile reply has ever been received. Yes it is possible to remove a subscriber from the list by force, which may well have to be the case here, but to do that just because the list is spammed by a subscriber means that trolls can always win. If you or anyone else has any difficulty subscribing to, or unsubscribing from, this list, all that is necessary is to post a message to users-ow...@openoffice.apache.org explaining where the automated procedure failed you and a moderator will work with you to resolve the problem.
