Same here. How do we get removed from this email list.

Send an email to:

I also unsubscribe but it does not work.

Can you please expand on "does not work"? What did you do to unsubscribe? Did you get a confirmation email confirming that your request was processed?

To many people hit reply to all when they should just reply to who is
asking the question unless another person needs the same question
then they can ask to included

Do you realize that this behavior defeats archivers? So, you have an indexed, archived list of questions with no replies, which is not very useful for posterity or for eliminating redundant question-asking.

In general, unless the list guidelines specifically say otherwise (and I'm not aware this one does) typically people should reply to list.

The reason it's not the default on many lists (and, indeed, is short circuited by some email clients) is because of the "infinite loop of vacation messages replying to each other" snowball problem.
