This person is getting this message up to 200 times a day. He is no
longer on the Arch-L list and can't figure out why the messages keep coming.
The ARCH-L listowner (David Carlson at Texas A&M) is currently in Guatemala.
     Can someone tell me what is happening?

t

e

>3. You  might be  subscribed under  an equivalent yet  different address  - fo
r

"

,
>and ask the list owners to remove that address from the list.
>
>4. You could be  subscribed to the list under another  account, from which mai
l

M
>account. In  that case you should  be able to  leave the list by  resending th
e

>5. You could be subscribed to the list indirectly, via a "redistribution" list
