I have seen a deluge of requests to the list submission address
recently, both subscribe and unsubscribe requests.
Folks, please get with the program. Perhaps the internet should establish
an etiquette test before issuing accounts to people.
As a reminder the convention is that for a list named
somelist@someaddress
subscription and unsubscribe requests go to
somelist-request@someaddress
that way the requests go only to the list administrator and the
dozens, hundreds, thousands, or millions of users receving whatever
list you are participating in don'thave to know that Joe Somebody
wants to get off the list.
So please, please, please cooperate. it is enough of a hassle
to run the list let alone having to get gripes or pointers to
folks who send requests to the wrong place. Remember I don't
read the digest regularly, and requests send to the submission
address may not get seen at all. And frankly I am getting tired of
having to deal with this kind of stuff and have considered nuking
this list completely (it is for some reason the most troublesome of
the lists I administrate).
