If the normal address doesn't work, it most likely means that the exact form of your email address as given in the "envelope sender" has changed behind your back (ISPs do this sometimes) since you subscribed. In that case, if you have a mailer that supports the right standards, the "unsubscribe" button in your mailer will work (because the exact unsubscribe address is encoded in a header in each message from the list to you). If you don't have such a button, then use the "view full headers" option in your mailer, and find the "List-Unsubscribe:" header, and take the address out of the HTML mailto given on that line, and send email to it. Also, remember that you have to get the confirmation message back, and you have to reply to that confirmation message, for the unsubscribe to take effect. If you can't receive email at the address, you can't unsubscribe it (but on the other hand, you aren't being bothered by copies of list email to that address either, so you probably don't care; if it's bouncing it'll be dropped automatically). I can, if necessary, unsubscribe people by brute force from here, but I try to avoid doing so except as a last resort. Apart from workload issues (and there aren't actually enough people needing unsubscribe help to make that a *big* issue), it's also more error-prone, and I'd hate to muck up anybody else while unsubscribing someone. -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b at dd-b.net>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://noguns-nomoney.com/> <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/> <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
