Unsubscribe function does not seem to work ..... RE: [WEB4LIB] unsubscribe please

[Roy Tennant]

Please people, make your Web4Lib troubles my personal burden, not a
collective one. Email me directly, at roytennant at gmail.com and I will
be only too happy to remove you or whatever else you want (set you to
digest, etc. I am the ONLY ONE who should be seeing these messages.
