Six month mail processing delay :-)
I just HAD to forward this message I received. About a 9 months ago I
joined Adam Curry's "CyberSleaze" mailing list. About a month later I
unsubscribed. The messages continued to come and I tried unsubscribing
several more times.
Finally I set up a filter rule to flush the message and sent some grumpy
email to the postmaster of the site telling them to fix their software
(this was about mid-June of 1994).
This morning, I got the following message. Note the dates on it.
Nothing like taking one's time. You'd begin to think the government was
somehow involved.
