Ah, that's pretty good!
Victor, since we are on the subject of subscribing, when you go with the
web interface, do you receive an email that you have to confirm in order
to unsubscribe? Since I'm both subscribed from my personal email and my
work email, sometimes, at the end of the week, I forget to unsubscribe
my work email. The web interface is very nice, but if I have to reply to
a confirmation message from the email address I want to unsubscribe,
that's not going to work for me. Well, I can live with it, just have to
remember to unsub before leaving on Fridays... I don't have any problem
if the subscribe requires a confirmation reply, since I would be at work
then. Just the unsubscribe function.
So, what's the deal?
-Laurent.
