How to .. RE: [Wikinews-l] I WANT TO UNSUBSCRIBE

Tue Aug 16 15:21:15 UTC 2005

If you want to unsubscribe - maybe you should scroll down to the bottom of
this page:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikinews-l

And follow the directions on how to unsubscribe.

Spamming the mail list with the same message over and over will NOT
unsubscribe you, but it will piss off a bunch of other folks.
