What is with all these people sending unsubscribes to the list? I
thought by now everyone would know that you only send messages to the
list address and things that affect your subscription go to another
address.

Darryl,

Is it possible to add an unsubscribe link at the bottom of each post
along with the FAQ and Archive? I know that you've probably got the
unsubscribe information on the FAQ but obviously these folks are much to
busy and thus can't be expected to take the time to read it and find out
how to unsubscribe properly. Instead they just send a message to
hundreds (maybe thousands?) of people, who unlike them, have nothing
better to do then to read that some person no longer wants to receive
WinMac. Not that these hundreds (or thousands?) of people have any way
to unsubscribe this person though I'm sure they'd like to do even more
then that!!!

Is this the equivalent of somebody driving down the road with their
blinker on?
