unsubscribing
Can someone please help me to unsubscribe? I have carefully followed the instructions & also appealed to the list ‘owner’, but neither produces any result? TM Steel

Yes, I've noticed that about some of the messages. I wonder what's
up with that?

Poor advice perhaps. Not that I disapprove of the principle. I'm afraid
a whole lot of people - and exactly the ones who need help - won't have
a clue what "html" or "Content-type: text/plain" might be, much less how
to send simple plain text (and again, I had a very bemused look from a
Word user once when I asked for a "plain text file"; he hadn't a clue,
and it wasn't entirely his fault -- IMO user interfaces are so dumbed
down, people don't know what happens 'under the hood'. Maybe they
shouldn't need to; I'm not sure).
BTW I did notice the OP's list email did /not/ have the usual 'how to
unsubscribe' rubrick.

May be this can help:
Do not send HTML; send plain text (Content-type: text/plain) instead.
Sending HTML decreases the number of people who will read your email and is
the single most common cause of mail being rejected by the apache.org
inbound spam filtering. If your mail bounced and the error message said the
spam hits include HTML_MESSAGE, re-send the message as plain text.
