Hi Wayne, This actually got posted to the mailing list instead of the intended effect of unsubscribing you. Ironically, you may receive an email about your request to unsubscribe! If you want to unsubscribe, just follow the directions at the top of the digest (copied below): > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.archlinux.org/listinfo/arch-general > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > arch-general-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx I've unsubscribe to only very few lists, so I can't give you detailed information about it, but if I recall correctly the web unsubscribe was a breeze. Just go to https://lists.archlinux.org/listinfo/arch-general and enter your email in the last box to unsubscribe. You should receive any more information needed to unsubscribe!
