Lou -

Klamerus' frustration is not completely unwarranted. I answered that question 
in my reply to the list - did you read it? If not, there are three steps to 
take - fewer if you are successful.

1. Start an email from the account with which you subscribed to the list. You 
MUST send your unsubscribe request from the email address by which list mail is 
being rec'd.
2. Send a simple blank email from the account mentioned in step #1 to 
[email protected]
3. If you are not unsubscribed, please add in your requests for further help 
(as simply saying "it doesn't work" does not help people troubleshoot, as we 
all know too well):
        a. the email - including headers - that you sent to 
[email protected]
        b. any replies you may have rec'd from the list server, especially if 
they contain denials or errors.

There you go.

I am, &c.,

Kristin

P. S. I take quite to heart the belittling attitude found on so many tech 
lists. Bad attitude doesn't work from either direction, and yes, delivery 
matters. This is supposed to be a cooperative educational community, is it not? 
Sure, we should all RTFM, but some of us who have been forced to 
learn-or-get-laid-off simply lack the formal training to know which term to use 
in our search, or even to know which PERLDOC to read, have been shamed into 
silence by cruel responses.  I am far beyond that now, but I remember it well. 
Furthermore, this list contains quite a few for whom English is not a first 
language. I am grateful to everyone here for being on the list and helping 
those who come to it for assistance. We all get frustrated with simplistic or 
repetitive questions, and people who don't even try should be told to try 
first, but very little besides a bully's ego is helped by mean replies. No?

Thanks again, all of you, really.
