Martha et al,
Your frustration is understandable and I see folks on the Siberian
robin unscribing probably for the same reason but that is the
way of electronic mailing lists. I have unsubcribed to two lists
for much the same reasons outlined in your post.
However, the not-so-very-secret weapon that most of us 'old-timers'
have learned is to read the subject line and do a sweeping delete
of all those messages that don't seem to fit our interest. It might
be topics and it may even be the author in a very few and isolated
cases. I call it good management of my time. :) I do it every day
on several lists. Probably this is being deleted as some of you
read it or before it is even read.
Cheers,
Ellen
