Re: unsubscribe

[Kjetil Torgrim Homme <kjetilho>]

The correct address for administrative messages (like subscribing and
unsubscribing) is <crossfire-request@ifi.uio.no>.  I tell you this in
the welcoming message.  I've never had a subscribe request to the
wrong address -- why is unsubscribe so difficult?

When I see such messages posted to the discussion list, I usually send
a note that the wrong address was used, and wait for a message to the
request address.

Another plea while I'm at it: When you lose your account, remember to
tell me first. I often get a dozen or more messages because of faulty
addresses on a list. _You_ can help me.

Of course, the majority really are good netizens, thanks!

I'll include the whole standard welcome message, the old-timers don't
know what it looks like.

Hi, welcome to the list! You are now subscribed to both the crossfire
discussion list and crossfire-announce (reserved for announcing new
public releases of Crossfire).

Submissions should be sent to "crossfire@ifi.uio.no", administrative
messages to "crossfire-request@ifi.uio.no". Since I maintain the list
by hand, you may not get immediate response.

If you find the volume on the discussion list too high, you might want
to subscribe to the announcements list only. If so, mention this in the
unsubscribe message.

When you send a mail to the list, you may get "bounce mail". This
means that one of the members of the list has problems with his/her
mail. If you get a copy of your mail back from the list, you can
safely ignore them.

Crossfire files are available via FTP from the following sites:
    Europe:  ftp.ifi.uio.no         (129.240.64.2)
    USA:     ftp.world.net          (192.243.32.18)
    Oceania: yoyo.cc.monash.edu.au  (130.194.9.1)

An introduction to Crossfire can be obtained via WWW, 
    http://www.ifi.uio.no/~frankj/crossfire/
This is still under construction.
