If you are receiving mail from one of the mailing lists, there should be
absolutely no reason that you would be unable to unsubscribe yourself from
the list, except for your ability to follow the directions at
http://www.php.net/unsub.php . However, if you find yourself unable to
unsubscribe from the mailing list, send an email to
php-list-admin@lists.php.net. Make sure to include the complete headers from
one of the messages you have received from the mailing list. Keep in mind
that there's a human being at the other end of that last email address, so
you'll have to be patient.

Why the hell would you want to unsubscribe from this list? Are we
not good enough for you?!? ;-P

In any case, thanks to Gmail telling me never to delete email
again - and me ignorantly allowing them to shepherd me into doing as
they say - here's the welcome message I received from the list several
months back:

Welcome to php-general@lists.php.net!

Please save this message so that you know the address you are
subscribed under, in case you later want to unsubscribe or change your
subscription address.


--- Administrative commands for the php-general list ---

I can handle administrative requests automatically. Please
do not send them to the list address! Instead, send
your message to the correct command address:

For help and a description of available commands, send a message to:
<php-general-help@lists.php.net>

To subscribe to the list, send a message to:
<php-general-subscribe@lists.php.net>

To remove your address from the list, just send a message to
the address in the ``List-Unsubscribe'' header of any list
message. If you haven't changed addresses since subscribing,
you can also send a message to:
<php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net>

or for the digest to:
<php-general-digest-unsubscribe@lists.php.net>

For addition or removal of addresses, I'll send a confirmation
message to that address. When you receive it, simply reply to it
to complete the transaction.

If you need to get in touch with the human owner of this list,
please send a message to:

<php-general-owner@lists.php.net>

Please include a FORWARDED list message with ALL HEADERS intact
to make it easier to help you.
