>I think that every user has the right to unsubscribe from a list >whenever he/she wants. It's not a problem of "right", but of not being sure that the command actually comes from you. Given a 20 lines exec and a few minutes, it is very easy for a "smart" user to REVIEW a large and important list and zzzap, signoff everybody, clean and neat. You just need to keep the output of the REVIEW on your disk so that you can resend the signoff commands every day, I mean, otherwise people could re-subscribe and this would spoil the fun. With large lists there are so many people who do a REVIEW that it is practically impossible to locate you, since you need to do the REVIEW only once. Eric
