I’ve written a few times in the past about idiots who get their monthly email reminders from my Mailman mailing lists and then write to me personally to unsubscribe instead of following the instructions in that email reminder.
For the last couple of months, somebody has been doing that, with a pissy “this is the [N]th request” just as a topper. I write back with “That email you got a few hours ago contains 3 different ways of unsubscribing yourself from the list, and nowhere is “writing a pissy email to the server administrator” listed as a viable option”. Unfortunately, in this case it turns out that the email address the guy is writing me from bounces. And it’s not subscribed to any of my mailing lists. So even if I wanted to unsubscribe him, I can’t.
So I guess I’ll just wait to see what “N” he gets to before he gets really mad. Not that I’ll be able to do anything about it. Or care, for that matter.
