Wow! Perfect demonstration of the technical literacy both of those that |
| 23 |
post "remove" instructions to mailing lists, and of those that post |
| 24 |
using |
| 25 |
not only HTML, but some MS mangled version of same! |
| 26 |

A hint, Eric, if you are reading this. Look in the mail headers for |
| 28 |
unsubscribe instructions, or go to the same site you used to subscribe, |
| 29 |
and read them there. |

|
| 31 |
If you don't know how to read mail headers, and don't remember which |
| 32 |
site |
| 33 |
you used to subscribe, well... click on the "lists" link at gentoo.org, |
| 34 |
taking you to the lists page, with... surprise! instructions for |
| 35 |
subscribing and unsubscribing from the lists! Amazing how you find the |
| 36 |
unsubscribe instructions for a Gentoo list, under the lists link on the |
| 37 |
Gentoo site, isn't it? It's not as if you go to an MS Office site, or |
| 38 |
one |
| 39 |
for the Interior ministry of China, or something, to find instructions |
| 40 |
for |
| 41 |
unsubscribing from a Gentoo list. |
