The link at the bottom of every message takes you to a webpage where you
can manage your subscription:
<http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/freetds>  I can tell from
that page that the address <toymudrunner AT dock.net> is subscribed.  From
that web page, I have requested that a copy of your password be emailed
to you.  With that password, you should be able to complete the
unsubscription process, either from the webpage
(http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/options/freetds/toymudrunner--at--dock.net),
or using the email interface.

Any of those who have been accidentally subscribed to the list can
follow these same steps to get themselves unsubscribed.  I don't have
administrative control over the mailing list, nor do most other
subscribers, so spamming the list with idiocy will only antagonize
innocent bystanders until they eventually resolve to cast off their
innocence.  At which point, the offenders are likely to learn a lesson
in netiquette that only programmers such as us are capable of
delivering.

My sympathies to those who have somehow been subscribed against their
will during this mailing list changeover.  And to those who have no
mastery of the Internet beyond their Outlook reply button: Knock it off!

:P
