There
are several ways to unsubscribe from a mailing
list. The Signoff Anylist document tells you how to unsubscribe from any mailing list. If
you can't unsubscribe from a list, it is usually because the server thinks
that you are not unsubscribing from the same address that you subscribed from.
This can happen because:
- New address. You have changed email
addresses, and your mail is being redirected to your new address from your old
address.
- Changed address. Your email program
has changed and the return email address is slightly different. For example it
may now be "jsmith@twenty.net", but was previously the longer name "jsmith@host.twenty.net".
On
Majordomo lists this problem can often be fixed by appending the exact address
from which you subscribed to the end of the Unsubscribe command
unsubscribe
<listname> jsmith@twenty.net
If that doesn't work, and
you can't send a message from the exact email address that you subscribed from,
then you will have to send an email to the list owner or administrator and ask
them to unsubscribe you manually. See the welcome message you got when you first subscribed
to find the address of a human being.
