Getting much more verbose than that is a waste, because you're then entering the territory of people who's not smart enough to read the tips at the bottom. On the other hand, the people soliciting unsubscription on the list itself is not that many. I did a simple-minded research a couple of months ago, based on the unsubscription requests to the pgsql-es-ayuda list (which was, I'd say, ten times more frequent than for all the english lists I'm on, combined); versus people who unsubscribed correctly using the Majordomo interface. The latter were much more numerous than I had expected. So I don't think we should do anything about it. It's not really a serious problem. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support
