Subject: HumourNet: How To Unsubscribe

Me again ...

In my previous message, I mentioned that the listproc is now processing
unsubscribe requests, but I forgot two key pieces of information:

1. How it's done:

Send the following command to the listproc (listproc2@bgu.edu):

unsubscribe humornet

(Nothing else goes on that line!)

2. The charge:

Though subscriptions are free, unsubs cost US$5.00 to US$7.00,
depending on your geographical location. The charge appears on your
credit card as "HumourNet Communications, Inc." (Please remember this
when you get your bill.)

;-)

Though all of this is spelled out in clear and unambiguous prose
in your welcome message, a small few of you are just barely
literate enough to subscribe yourselves, but appear to be incapable
of figuring out how to undo it. Consider this your HumourNet hand-
holding assistance. I hope you've enjoyed it as much as I have.

Note that, from here on out, Darwin's Principle is in effect: Please
read the instructions, or forever send commands -- ineffectively,
mind you -- to the wrong address.
