Hi,

This is a quick and easy way to unsub list members without a pw.  However
since you can only see 30 names at a time it becomes more difficult with
larger than 60 member lists.  

We just went through what was almost an attack with people posting remove
me requests to the list.  Some sent several an hour. Next there was a wave
of requests to be removed because of the jammed in boxes.  If we can have
group subscription why not group unsubscription.
