Dear colleagues,
I am truly sorry for the annoyance caused by the mass emails
circulating in the list today.
I spoke to the IT department of my University, and got some idea what went wrong.
Despite that the mailing list was requested as a "1-way
announcement-only" list, some parameters were not created
correctly (and I apologize for not verifying this before posting
messages to this list).
I can confirm that this issue has now been fixed. If anyone would like to manually removed from the list (see below for email-based options), you should directly send an email to me ([log in to unmask]); your reply to the list will be rejected (so that the message won't be delivered to everyone).
Secondly, I received several requests that the unsubscribe links
failed to work (I did test this feature previously and it did work
on my computer). This might be a result of special encodings on
your computer or server glitches. I've asked the IT department to
report this to Listserv support, and find out what might be the
cause.
In the meantime, if you still have difficulty to unsubscribe by
clicking on the link, you may try unsubscribing by email (I also
tested this, and it worked), simply by sending an empty message to
from your subscribed account. Once sent, you should receive a
confirmation message shortly. If your email has already been
manually removed, your confirmation email should indicate that
your email is not in the list.
Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience caused by our setting
glitches. Please accept my sincere apology.
This mailing list should stay silent for now.
