As this is one of several such messages this clown has sent us, despite unsubscribe instructions having been posted several times in the last few weeks, I am bouncing all of his inappropriate messages back to him (though I am being careful--and I urge you all to be careful, too--to cut out any cc:ing of others). If you feel this jerk's posts are inappropriate, you might decide to do the same as I am doing.

I think the "clueless" mailing list is a must at this point.

Well, I suggested it, but in any case I'm glad to see that it has been created! Thanks to Sameer for yet another innovative network service... I'll watch it occasionally and post summaries?

But... will it have any traffic? How will people know they are on the list if they ignore the original subscription confirmation?
I subscribed to Sameer's "clueless" list yesterday and haven't seen any posts so far. :( -Declan

Here you go (*all* the instructions you need)--- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Return-Path: <listserv-manager@ucsd.edu> Date: Wed, 17 Apr 1996 18:21:28 -0700 From: Listserv@ucsd.edu (Mailing List Processor) To: foo@coelacanth.com Subject: Re: your LISTSERV request "subscribe clueless" X-Loop: Listserv@UCSD.EDU Welcome to the Clueless Users Network Test System, an intelligence test for the ignorant and impolite. You have been automatically added to this mailing list because you sent a subscription request like "UNSUB ME" out to the entire readership of a mailing list, instead of sending it to the list server or list maintainer. There is nobody of worth reading this mailing list. The only way you can become unsubscribed is to figure out the standard way of unsubscribing from an Internet mailing list. Until that time, you will get these messages regularly. If you made an innocent mistake in sending your "UNSUB ME" out to the entire list, then you will know how to unsubscribe from this list immediately and no harm will be done. If, on the other hand, you simply have no clue how to deal with mailing lists, you'd better start reading up on the subject before you go blundering around again. Your attention is cordially drawn to the newsgroups news.announce.newusers, news.newusers.questions, and news.answers. Final hint: the mailing list address is clueless@ucsd.edu Have fun. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Return-Path: <listserv-manager@ucsd.edu> Date: Wed, 17 Apr 1996 18:21:21 -0700 From: Listserv@ucsd.edu (Mailing List Processor) To: foo@coelacanth.com Subject: Re: your LISTSERV request "subscribe clueless" X-Loop: Listserv@UCSD.EDU Per your request "subscribe clueless" 'foo@coelacanth.com' was ADDED to the 'clueless' mailing list. To remove yourself from this list, send the command 'unsub foo@coelacanth.com clueless' to clueless-request@ucsd.edu or listserv@ucsd.edu. Listserv problems requiring human intervention should be addressed to clueless-relay@ucsd.edu. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Return-Path: <listserv-manager@ucsd.edu> Date: Wed, 17 Apr 1996 18:21:00 -0700 From: Listserv@ucsd.edu (Mailing List Processor) To: foo@coelacanth.com Subject: Re: your LISTSERV request "subscribe clueless foo bar" X-Loop: Listserv@UCSD.EDU You may subscribe or unsubscribe to any of the various campus mailing lists and the local redistributions of global mailing lists by sending email to "listserv@ucsd". The commands understood by the listserver program are: HELP lists this file. This is also sent whenever a message to listserv is received from which no valid command could be parsed. HELP listname lists a brief description of the maillist requested. INDEX lists all the maillists available for subscription. LONGINDEX lists all the maillists and their descriptions. ADD listname DELETE listname ADD address listname DELETE address listname adds or deletes the given address to or from the list specified. Mail is sent to the address given to confirm the add or delete operation. For on-campus users, we strongly recommend that you use your campus registered mailname when subscribing (i.e., use the second form of the command which includes a specification of the address). If you omit the 'address', the command will assume the mailbox that is in the From: line of the message. Note that SUBSCRIBE is a synonym for ADD; UNSUBSCRIBE for DELETE. DELETE-ALL UNSUBSCRIBE-ALL DELETE-ALL address UNSUBSCRIBE-ALL address unsubscribes given address from all mailing lists. Mail is sent the address given to confirm the deletions. If you omit the 'address' the command will assume the mailbox that is in the From: line of the message. LIST LIST address lists all mailing lists to which the given address is subscribed. If you omit the 'address' the command will assume the mailbox is in the from line. FAQ FAQ listname sends a list of "Frequently Asked Questions" for the appropriate mailing list. The command "FAQ" by itself sends an index of available FAQ's. A command must be the first word on each line in the message. Lines which do not start with a command word are ignored. If no commands were found in the entire message, this help file will be returned to the user. A single message may contain multiple commands; a separate response will be sent for each. Please note that it IS possible to add or delete someone else's subscription to a mailing list. This facility is provided so that subscribers may alter their own subscriptions from a new or different computer account. There is therefore some potential for abuse; we have chosen to limit this by mailing a confirmation notification of any addition or deletion to the address added or deleted including a copy of the message which requested the operation. At least you can find out who's doing it to you. Examples: add sunusers add ewombat foodlovers delete wombat@cyberpunk.ucsd.edu connectionists help eggbeaters Note that although you would mail submissions to a campus mailing list by addressing mail to e.g., sunusers@ucsd.edu. In a subscription request you specify the name of the list simply (without the @ucsd part) as in the first example above. -- Roger Williams PGP key available from PGP public keyservers Coelacanth Engineering consulting & turnkey product development Middleborough, MA wireless * DSP-based instrumentation * ATE tel +1 508 947-8049 * fax +1 508 947-9118 * http://www.coelacanth.com/
