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.

As I am going to be away for a couple of weeks I sent an 'Unsubscribe" message 
2 days ago and received an acknowledgement that it had been received.  So why 
am I still receiving messages?
