Ie joe-bsd@blo.com is a totally different 'person' to the mail than joe@blo.com. So obviously mailing unsubscribe joe-bsd@blo.com from joe@blo.com wont work. It isnt the lists fault that you cant send mail from the alias. -mtl -------------------------------------------------- Michael Lapinski Computer Scientist GE Corporate Research & Development "I think there is a world market for maybe five computers." - IBM Chairman Thomas Watson, 1943 -----Original Message----- From: Valence Logrus [mailto:valence@symboliq.org] Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 4:45 PM To: Hug Me Cc: freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Mailing List I hear ya! Trying to remove yourself from these lists is almost impossible! I've written the postmaster three times, each time they say I'm not a member, because the only email address I can send from is my account@domain, not the alias I used to receive email at. How does one remove themselves from these damn lists? Perhaps I should just start bouncing the mail at spam, which at this point that's all it is, spam.
