You don't need anyone's permission to run a procmail filter. That would be a bad--and silly--precedent to set.

No, what's silly & bad, is when users can't leave well enough alone, and decide they can control things such as this.

Ulitmately, such "filters", can, and do, run awry, and you spam out that stuff to the list, as you recently did. THAT is silly & bad, and will ultimately get you added to my spam filters, as what you sent out is no better than that.

As I stated, and you so neatly trimmed off: There are clear, and simple instructions at the bottom of every e-Mail that comes off this list, as well as sent to each and every user, when they sign up, on how to unsubscribe. An auotresponder such as yours is needless, and redundant, and should be removed. I, for one, do not appreciate receiving such "mistakes".

Leave list management to the list owners.

This is my final comment on this.
