Re: get me out the list, PLEASE

Again!

KTBM> Dear Srs please get me out of the SPSS list.

We CAN'T. You should do it by yourself.

This is a copy of the wellcome message you received when you
subscribed to this list. Instructions to keep it (that you didn't
follow, see 1sr paragraph) as well as information on how to proceed to
quit the list are fully explained.

I'll save you the working of reading it all. This is what you must do
to leave the list (4th paragraph of the wellcome message):

"You may leave the list at any time by sending a "SIGNOFF SPSSX-L" command
to [hidden email]."

Please, notice that you should NOT send the SIGNOFF command to all of
us ([hidden email]), but to a slightly different address
([hidden email])

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copy of the full wellcome message:

Your subscription to the SPSSX-L list (SPSSX(r) Discussion) has been
accepted.

Please save this message for future reference, especially if this is the
first time you are subscribing to an electronic mailing list. If you ever
need to leave the list, you will find the necessary instructions below.
Perhaps more importantly, saving a copy of this message (and of all
future subscription notices from other mailing lists) in a special mail
folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you
are subscribed to. This may prove very useful the next time you go on
vacation and need to leave the lists temporarily so as not to fill up
your mailbox while you are away! You should also save the "welcome
messages" from the list owners that you will occasionally receive after
subscribing to a new list.

To send a message to all the people currently subscribed to the list,
just send mail to [hidden email]. This is called "sending mail
to the list," because you send mail to a single address and LISTSERV
makes copies for all the people who have subscribed. This address
([hidden email]) is also called the "list address." You must
never send a command to that address, as it would be distributed to all
the people who have subscribed. All commands must be sent to the
"LISTSERV *server* address," [hidden email].

You may leave the list at any time by sending a "SIGNOFF SPSSX-L" command
to [hidden email].

Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can get a
list of the available archive files by sending an "INDEX SPSSX-L" command
to [hidden email]. You can then order these files with a "GET
SPSSX-L LOGxxxx" command, or using LISTSERV's database search facilities.
Send an "INFO DATABASE" command for more information on the latter.

This list is available in digest form. If you wish to receive the
digested version of the postings, just issue a SET SPSSX-L DIGEST
command.

More information on LISTSERV commands can be found in the LISTSERV
reference card, which you can retrieve by sending an "INFO REFCARD"
command to [hidden email].

Re: Hear, hear!! RE: get me out the list, PLEASE

Hector and Friends:

I support the idea of a line at the end of every mail received from the list
that might state something like this:

"You may leave the list at any time by sending a "SIGNOFF SPSSX-L"
Command to [hidden email]."

I can guarantee fewer "take me out" messages, but working with all kind of
users I can predict with a 100% accuracy that the list will keep getting
this kind of messages, and the occasional GET ME OUT sent to SPSS-L!!!

Re: Hear, hear!! RE: get me out the list, PLEASE

In reply to this post by Hector Maletta

There are two solutions that came to mind: either you manage to
send (by yourself or through the IT person in your workplace) the SIGNOFF
message from your predecessor's address, OR you designate the list server
messages as spam.
Or perhaps, as a remedy of last resort, you may pray that some Deus
ex machina from UGA.EDU may read about your plight and intervene on your
behalf.

I have a unique situation in that someone who is no longer with my
company had signed up to be on this list, and now that she is gone and I am
in her position, all of the emails sent to her old email address are
automatically forwarded to ME. Therefore, when I request to get off of the
list (via the directions in the email below), it does not work! I get an
email back saying that my name is not on the list...

Any ideas???

In reply to this post by Eugenio Grant

Eugenio is right--the requests won't stop. However, I hypothesize that
people who want to get off this list don't read the email from this
list--that's why they want to get off the list. Putting a tagline in the
message won't really cut down on these annoying requests.

You may be able to do it through the list's Web site,

http://www.listserv.uga.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=spssx-l&A=1

If not, the list administrator for SPSSX-L (and other lists hosted at
UGA.EDU)
is

"Jean Snow, UGA Listserv Admin" <[hidden email]>

She has authority to cancel subscriptions. You'll have to give her
whatever authentication she requests.

TO ALL: Jean Snow is very helpful, but also very busy. Mail to her
should be the *last* resort, not the first.

Doug Fuller

Re: Hear, hear!! RE: get me out the list, PLEASE

In reply to this post by Hector Maletta

Except that SPSSX-L is not spam. Legitimate mailing lists like this are
opt-in; the user signed up to receive these messages. Declaring legitimate
messages as spam "confuses" adaptive filtering and mailer reputation
software designed to block actual spam. Worst case scenario is where many
people declare SPSSX-L messages as spam and listserv.uga.edu gets put on a
blacklist and causes Jean and others much grief.

Respectfully,
Doug

Re: Hear, hear!! RE: get me out the list, PLEASE

You are right. In fact, the solution has already been reached
through Jean Snow, of LISTSERV.UGA.EDU.

Except that SPSSX-L is not spam. Legitimate mailing lists like
this are
opt-in; the user signed up to receive these messages. Declaring
legitimate
messages as spam "confuses" adaptive filtering and mailer
reputation
software designed to block actual spam. Worst case scenario is
where many
people declare SPSSX-L messages as spam and listserv.uga.edu gets
put on a
blacklist and causes Jean and others much grief.

Respectfully,
Doug
