David,
I've often wondered why the Linux SA group hasn't done what hundreds of
other mailing lists do and that is put the unsubscribe instructions at the
top of the body of the mail message rather than at the bottom.
This would then fix your continued gripe about people being unable to read
the bottom of the mail message.
Come to think of it, if I find a mail message does not necessarily seem
interesting to me within the first few lines, I don't tend to read to the
end of it!!!!!!!
Actually, even if it is interesting, I've become so jaded that I tend to
ignore the garbage at the end of the mail message which usually states
advertising, legal crap and other non-essential information to me at any
given point in time, etc.,etc.,etc., yadda, yadda, yadda
Regards,
Desiree M. de Fluiter
(PS I know you read the end of mail messages, so I'll say you must be in a
global minority - Dez ;-) )

Subject: Re: unsubscribe
I hope that my NON HTML e-mail doesn't delete the instructions on
how to
unsubscribe from the list which will appear at the very bottom of
the
page.
One day I'll transcribe them to Sumerian which is clearly a language
that may be useful for putting the unsubscribe instructions in...
