How can I be taken off the pic list. I can't keep up with so much email. I thought about use it for few hints, but it is overwhelming. thank you On Fri, 21 Aug 1998, Sally wrote: > Please DON'T SEND ME ANYMORE MAILS!! > PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.

It seems that some micreant is constantly forging subscription requests for people that don't have any interest in the PICLIST. If we were running the PICLIST from a "real" mailing list server like Brent Chapman's Majordomo, instead of an old IBM mainframe (*), we could 1) Examine the logs and find out what jerk is doing this 2) Have the mail server require a "confirm" message for subscription requests, before flooding a victim with mail I've offered repeately to host the list on a machine where things like this are possible. And I thought that was what the PICLIST fund was for, but it's been over a year and nothing's happened. My server will be moving soon from a 1.5 MB to a 384 KB link, so it's no longer practical for me to offer to host the list. But perhaps we can find someone who can? Eric (*) This should not be interpreted as meaning that I'm ungrateful to MIT for providing the list facilities; they've been quite generous. I'm just pointing out that if it were moved to a different machine we could have better control of the list.

It is even less fair to bounce useless answers to useless requests to 1600 people who mostly pay for Internet access. Peter
