says it all really readthe headers of the mails you have recieved and in there is full instructions on how to unsubscribe ..
snip..
Let's assume that 1. I am a Windows user. 2. I have tired hard to get up to speed with Linux, but could not manage. 3. I have ditched Linux and am back on my beloved Windows. 4. I still get mail from this mailing list.
Questions: 1. What is a mail header, I used Outlook's help and it does not refer to headers, the term header they use has nothing to do with what mail headers in our world mean. 2. How do I access the mail headers under Outlook ore Outlook express?
As part of my current job, I try to educate Windows users (and hopefully convince them to switch to Linux too) to use mail and mailing lists sensibly. Most of these users do not know what mail headers are, what they are for, neither how to get at them under outlook or outlook express. It is not something Windows users are familiar with.
Another unsubscription from this mailing list, another lost case for SuSE Linux.

1) In Outlook 2003, right-click on any message from the mailing list in the inbox. 2) Select "Options" 3) In the box at the bottom of the pop-up labeled (appropriately) "Internet Headers", scroll down into it and you will see a line like the following -- list-unsubscribe: <mailto:suse-linux-e-unsubscribe-joeblow=myemailprovider.com@suse.com> The text following mailto: is what goes in the To in your email message to get you unsubscribed. That's all there is to it. No Subject, No text in the message. If you're sending the email from the subscribed address, you can leave off your email address and just send it to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com. Greg Wallace
