Hello, oh wise ones. I am doing a good deed and putting this problem
before you.  The people who are trying to signoff of a list (ONE THAT I DO
NOT OWN) I subscribe to (called WMN-HLTH from uwavm.u.washington.edu) are
going crazy. I promised to forward the problem over here to see what is
going on. Evidently there are problems at uwavm. My mail from them was held
up for 9 days! There are folks who are trying to signoff and getting nada.
Any clues? How do we locate an owner/manager? I'm getting tired of getting
all these UNSUB-ME messages, myself! (End of good deed for today.) JEH

Jan, can you help?
 
I have tried all of the following, and NOTHING has worked yet!  I'm sure
others are doing the same.  Maybe if enough people complain, it will get
fixed!  I have followed the instructions given in the welcoming subscription
letter...to no avail.

There is no moderator address to contact, so my next move will be as
everyone elses, which is to copy the entire list.  Maybe SOMEONE can
do something!
 
If you can help, please forward this to the correct person.  If not,
then I will copy this email to the list and maybe they can help!
 
Thanks and regards,
Carol
