It's a means of collecting email addresses, like the "joke of the day" subscriptions with reply addresses that don't go to the "joke of the day" site they pretend to be from. The expectation is that people will reply with information on how to unsubscribe, thereby validating their emial addresses... just like you do if you try to unsubscribe from the mailing list that you never subscribed to in the first place. -- Terry Jorge Severino Diaz wrote: > > unsubscribe > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
