WTF ?? Do you realize you're forwarding messages to 11 different mailing lists? 01. ambient@hyperreal.org 02. idm@hyperreal.org 03. abstracticon@yahoogroups.com 04. electronic@yahoogroups.com 05. manchester_electronica@yahoogroups.com 06. nutone_pl@yahoogroups.com 07. socalexp@yahoogroups.com 08. idm-m@yahoogroups.com 09. recordcamp@yahoogroups.com 10. Toytronic@yahoogroups.com 11. zombies@hollyfeld.org So let's see - you forward 3 or 4 emails to 11 different lists. That's around forty messages. Out of the thousands of subscribers receiving multiple copies of these emails (as of course many of them subscribe to more than one list) a good amount of them already received the emails since they're subscribed to the various mailing lists you're forwarding from. This goes beyond the cold comfort of hitting my *delete* key, we're talking repetitive stress disorder and every time I see "By way of Pietrobot" I want to fucking scream ~@#$ As I see it - this is spam and I want to be UNSUBSCRIBED. Not from all of these lovely lists I'm a member of but from all this forwarded crap originating from pietrobot@digitalnimbus.com I do understand that some people appreciate and really look forward to Pietro's emails. My suggestion for Pietro is to start your own Pietrobot mailing list so people have the choice of opting in or out of all this extra mail. -- Shimone/Justes http://www.staticbeats.com > Electronic Music > Digital Culture http://www.boomboombap.com > First Come > First Heard --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
