[ensembl-dev] If you wish to unsubscribe

[Kristian Gray]

Hi Emily,

To be fair to the people requesting to be unsubscribed, I think that these people may not be native english speakers and because of this, the email footer and especially the mailman page that is linked isn’t that clear for unsubscribing. As a suggestion I think that it would be best to have an “unsubscribe” link to http://lists.ensembl.org/mailman/listinfo/dev#subscribers <http://lists.ensembl.org/mailman/listinfo/dev#subscribers> and if possible ask for the text to be changed to make it clearer on the mailman page or describe the unsubscribe process.

ie "scroll down to the bottom of the page where you will find an input box and a button saying “Unsubscribe or edit options”. Please enter you email address within the input box and then click on the button.”

We appreciate that once you've got the answer to your question you may not want to see everything that comes in so we make it very easy to unsubscribe yourself. At the bottom of every email that comes on this list is a link to posting guidelines and unsubscription. If you don't want to receive these emails, please make use of this link, rather than sending emails to the whole list.
