On the contrary; as the originator of the comprehension test idea, I am well aware of the OPs problems, at least as regards this mailing list. However, it was obvious that this particular user was not too good at comprehending instructions given to him by various list members. I can think of at least three possible solutions presented, those being: 1) send an email with the "correct" email address, 2) use the web page to unsubscribe; a URL was presented, 3) block incoming mail from l.d.o so he gets "bounced" off (a great idea, I thought). It appears the OP finally chose option 2. -- Nathan Norman - Incanus Networking mailto:nnorman@incanus.net This disclaimer is priviledged information and may not be read by anyone except the intended recipient, whoever that is.
