Is there a list-administrator also listening in ?
I have tried to unsubscribe a zillion times now and .... I'm still on
this list. I would appreciate if the ml-admin could help me out here.
Somewhat modified version of what Tony M sent awhile ago...
Unsubscribing from the vim or vim-dev list requires the following steps:
1. Send an email to the list you want off of:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -and/or-
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
That email does not need any body text, but its "From:" line must
contain your subscribed address.
The "From:" line *must* be the same as the one from which you
subscribed and are receiving list mail!
2. Wait (usually a few seconds, sometimes a few minutes, depending on how
often you fetch mail from your server) for a robot autoreply to the
message you sent at step 1.
3. The robot autoreply (step 2) is there to check that the message
(step 1)
was really from you! It will contain instructions on how to complete
the
unsubscription.
4. Do what the autoreply says: this usually means sending an email to an
address containing a complicated pseudorandom key, and acts as
verification
that its really you that wants to unsubscribe, not some prankster.
5. Shortly after you complete step 4, the list mail for this list
should stop
coming in.
Congrats, Dr. Chip! You put it more clearly than I could.
Best regards,
Tony.
