Change of e-mail address

[Axel Schlicht <axel.schlicht@mail.isis.de>]

Hi fellow Linux users.

For the last couple of days I (or rather may mailbox) have been flooded 
with SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, averaging to over 1000 emails per day. Lately 
with the arrival of anoter stupid Windoze virus / worm those messages 
show an annoying tendency to get bigger and bigger, the average now 
being about 150 kB. Although I enjoy the benefits of a DSL flatrate it 
is still rather irksome.
So I would like to abandon my current e-mail address and make it into a 
bit bucket for all that junk to rot.
Geting a new (or several new) e-mail addreses from my ISP is no problem 
at all.
What is the easiest way to change my e-mail address on all the lists I 
am subscribed to (I read quite a lot of them).
I am convinced there must be a much easier way than to unsubscribe under 
the old address and subscribe again under the new address.

Any assistance will be gratefulle appreciated.

TIA
