I have a similar problem with people who are not aware (forget) which of
their email they subscribed from so they cannot issue commands, this is
esecially true for people who have changed companies, or graduated, etc
have some sort of a forwarding but are not aware where its actually
coming from.
Are there any disadvantes to the SET command below?

thanks,
omer.
