[Spooks] Spooks List

Fri, 13 Sep 2002 09:45:37 -0700

Hi Chris:

I have my mail program set to NOT show headers and I expect most people have that option
set so the only thing that comes with every message is the footer:

Spooks mailing list
[email protected]
http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/spooks

When I go to this page there is no information on how to unsubscribe.

Maybe you could post something on this page about unsubscribing?

Just a thought,

Brooke
