Subject: HELP:Unsubscribing

Could someone please tell me how to unsubscribe from this list. I have tried
the server but it doesnt do it and claims to inform the list admin, but Im
still here.

I only acess this account once every couple of weeks and the FT stuff is huge.

Please help

mxserver@bolton.ac.uk

The Subject can be left blank. The body of the message should read;

Different, see? So when you send an unsubscribe message the system look at the
list of subscribers and says "He's not here. Oh well (SHRUG)" and carries on.
Basically, you have to set your email address to the same as the "to:" field
in the messages you receive from the list for the unsub to work.

Anyone having problems unsubscribing let me know and I'll sort it out for you.
SImon, I'll unsub you first chance I get.
