Unsubcipe my mail address from the group.
Regards,
Suresh
Hello,
I unsubscribed manually, and got a confirmation email, yet I'm still
getting messages. Anyone notice so many ppl are having trouble
unsubscribing??
No [1].

[1] Mainly because nobody can unsubscribe you but you.
Because you people are dumb.
You need to mail "ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org" with "unsubscribe" in
the body. (Or you could probably unsub using web interface.)

And if you do so you will find that it does not work.
A confirmation email is sent, with instructions on the next step (reply to this email).
That step fails, consistently, persistently, and apparently unavoidably.
Note that the web interface delegates to the email interface, and thus suffers from the same failure mode.
Mails to the admin list are ignored.

DITTO! Very hard to get off the list. Tried several times. Someone even
butted in with instructions with proof that he/she was unsubscribed. Did
exactly what the instructions said, and still here.
I'm sure that although I've responded to this email - I'll never be
unsubscribed. I have even considered changing my email address to get OFF
the list

I’ve subscribed and unsubscribed from ruby-talk several times, and I've
never had problems with it. Both the web interface and the direct emails
to ruby-talk-ctl work. The Admin of Ruby-Talk ist Matz himself AFAIK and
I bet he has other things to do than unsubscribing persons manually.
As someone else already suggested: You do not use HTML email for
emailing ruby-talk-ctl, do you?
...I don’t remember who it was, but somebody even posted a web tutorial
for unsubscribing from Ruby-Talk, with screenshots for each step. I’m
sure if you search for it, you will find it.
Valete,
Marvin

It's seeming more and more that there is a legitimate problem with
unsubscribing. Yet every time this issue comes up the people who are
trying to unsubscribe get sarcastic non-solutions and even name
calling. Not very MINASWAN.

This may be a dumb question, but . . . did you use HTML email to reply?

I just unsubscribed, confirmed I was unsubscribed, then resubscribed.
Here's what I did:
Send an email to ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org with a body of unsubscribe. It looked like this:
From: Eric Hodel <drbrain@segment7.net>
To: ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org
Subject:unsubscribe
I received an email from ruby-talk-ctl:
From: ruby-talk-admin@ruby-lang.org
Subject: Unsubscribe confirmation request
To: drbrain@segment7.net>>> unsubscribe
unsubscribe-confirm 2012061906284781468055226 drbrain segment7.netPlease reply this mail to confirm your unsubscribe request
and send this to ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org
If confirmed, you are removed from MAILING LIST <ruby-talk@ruby-lang.org>.--ruby-talk@ruby-lang.org, Be Seeing You!
[…]
I replied to this message, including the unsubscribed text in the body:
From: Eric Hodel <drbrain@segment7.net>
To: ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org
Subject: Re: Unsubscribe confirmation request>
>>>> unsubscribe
> unsubscribe-confirm 2012061906284781468055226 drbrain segment7.net

[…]
I received a response saying I was unsubscribed:
From: ruby-talk-admin@ruby-lang.org
Subject: Unsubscribe and confirmation result
To: drbrain@segment7.net>>> unsubscribe-confirm 2012061906284781468055226 drbrain segment7.net
set UNSUBSCRIBE-CONFIRM => BYE
BYE [drbrain@segment7.net] accepted.
change member and recipient lists--ruby-talk@ruby-lang.org, Be Seeing You!
[…]
I then sent an email to ruby-talk@ruby-lang.org which bounced:
From: ruby-talk-admin@ruby-lang.org
To: drbrain@segment7.net
Subject: You drbrain@segment7.net are not member (ruby-talk ML)You are not a member of this mailing list <ruby-talk@ruby-lang.org>.
If you want to know the general guide of this list, please send an email
with the body (case-insensitive):# guide
to the address
ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org
Note that the mail should not be encoded in base64.
Hrm, this note: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
seems pertinent to unsubscribe problems. I think Chad Perrin is on to something in [ruby-talk:396612]:
This may be a dumb question, but . . . did you use HTML email to reply?
Sending text/html or multipart/alternative email when talking to robots is likely going to be unproductive.
Additionally, for technical mailing lists it's generally recommended that you stick to text/plain email so that code samples, example output and whatnot are all properly formatted.
I'm not the only person who has unsubscribed (and resubscribed) with no problem today. If you are still having problems unsubscribing from this list the fault is likely in your mail client, not in the mailing list.
I also note that you continually say "it didn't work" without showing what you sent the ruby-talk-ctl and what ruby-talk-ctl sent to you. Like any problem you want help fixing on this mailing list, saying "it didn't work" without showing exactly what "it" is and showing exactly how "it" "didn't work" we'll be unable to help you.
Like I have shown above, please show:
Your email to ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org including From, To and Subject headers and the body.
The confirmation request mail from ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang to you including the same headers and body.
Your confirmation mail responding to ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org including the same headers and body.
The unsubscribe confirmation mail from ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org including the same headers and body.
(That's four emails with From, To, Subject and body)

Hey, in the worst case (things aren't just "most supriseful"
but also plain broken) you can filter the mailing list off
by headers, List-Id being the most appropriate one.
I use to lurk here since 2003 or so and while writing more shell,
make and scheme code than ruby these days I'm still subscribed to
the list but it's not in my mutt's default folders so rather read
when there's some spare time and inspiration. It's worth it

As I said, I tried unsubscribing using my method and it worked immediately.
