Please, remove my address from your mailing list. I don't want to recieve your correspondence messages either. If there's no action taken in the nearest future I'll make a spammer report on you, because this is the 3rd time I'm writing you about this. Have a nice day!

We will soon be using such a procedure to add students to their course
lists each semester to bypass any confirmation. The list owner completes a
web form, specifying listname, password and their e-mail address (we also
grab all the env variables). The output of this form is fed to a program
which takes the information and builds an ADD job for each list specified.
These ADD jobs are then sent to listserv (and cc:d to a real person). The
"From:" is the Owner and the password is the Owner's passwd so all replies
and errors go to the List Owner.
The only problem I anticipate would be if some character obtains an
owner's password for one of these confidential lists and proceeds to
request an update of an existing class list. In this case, the message
from listserv stating that "so many people have been added, etc.," would
go to the real owner and cause sufficient alarm that they would remember
the instructions to contact us.
