Well, if you can make it so that http://wwwmaster.postgresql.org/unsubscribe/pgsql-www redirects to the URL above, it does seem a lot better. Perhaps rather than "unsubscribe" we should use something like "list-settings" etc, because the page does some more stuff than just unsub. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 39+ messages in thread

That should be doable with a .htaccess rule for mod_rewrite, so it's then trivial. But even if you can't do it with mod_rewrite, we could do it with some custom PHP, with a bit more work. So - absolutely doable, once we decide where we want it to go. //Magnus ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 39+ messages in thread

I have now realized the Postgres FAQ was lacking in providing unsubscribe information, and in not promoting the use of eliminatecc and selfcopy for people who want it. I have added a new FAQ item: 1.15) How do I unsubscribe from the PostgreSQL email lists? How do I avoid receiving duplicate emails? The PostgreSQL Majordomo <URL> page allows subscribing or unsubscribing from any of the PostgreSQL email lists. (You might need to have your Majordomo password emailed to you to log in.) All PostgreSQL email lists are configured so a group reply goes to the email list and the original email author. This is done so users receive the quickest possible email replies. If you would prefer not to receive duplicate email from the list in cases where you already receive an email directly, check eliminatecc from the Majordomo Change Settings page. You can also prevent yourself from receiving copies of emails you post to the lists by unchecking selfcopy. -- Bruce Momjian <[email protected]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://postgres.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 39+ messages in thread

Ok, I have a .htaccess rule that does this. Since we're sending it to a preferences page, it seems reasonable to name it mailpref (or so) instead of unsub.
