    To subscribe to a mailinglist use the links below. In your first email you will get some + information about working with the list manager EZMLM. + But several times + there were problems with unsubscribing from a mailinglist. The problem is that you use another + email adress for unsubscribing than for subscribing and ezmlm could not find that adress for + deleting from the list. So you have to find out, to which concrete email adress ezmlm is sending + the mail. This is visible in the email headers (in Microsoft Outlook via the messages menu + "View | Options"). +

    + As you can see, you'll get the help information with each mail, too. + But more important is the Return-Path. If you change "return" into "unsubscribe" and you send + an email to that adress (user-unsubscribe-12345-Jan.Materne=me.acme.com@ant.apache.org) + this will unsubscribe you. +
