    Case in point, this message came in from one of my other lists as I was
writing that message:

- -----

To: debian-changes@lists.debian.org
Date: Fri, 02 Jul 1999 14:45:38 -0500
From: "David Morris" <bweaver@pionet.net>
Subject: 

unsubscribe
- --



- --  
To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-changes-request@lists.debian.org
with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmaster@lists.debian.org

- -----

    All Debian lists have the unsubscribe information at the bottom and all
of them get messages like this.  *shrug*
