Since opening up a can of worms with my last question, I almost regret asking this one... ;-) but: Why do some lists not allow people to un-subscribe automatically? I'm curious because I can not think of a good reason, and I, personally, find it really irritating to have to wait for someone to sign me off. (I'm not discussing internet lists here-- specifically BITNET lists which use LISTSERV for their operation). Curiously... --Bill ([log in to unmask])
