Hello, Donna. I had to unsubscribe and resubscribe a couple of weeks ago, because a flag for another command (which I will mention in a moment) was messed up. I found that after you send the unsubscribe message and you receive the response, you have to send back a message with, as its subject, a line in the message containing a command (I don't remember what it was, but I think "appunsub") and a bunch of numbers. You can tell whether or not you have successfully unsubscribed at any time by sending a message to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the command "which" in the subject field. This gives you a list of the lists to which you are subscribed. If you are only leaving for a short time, you may wish to use vacation mode, rather than unsubscribing. The syntax for the vacation command is: vacation [<list>] [<duration>] i.e., vacation duxuser 14d where "d" indicates day.

So why am I still receiving messages?
