HELP! Sorry to resort to your forum for this mundane question, but I can't find
 help elsewhere, and this looked like a sympathetic place. A year ago some
 doofus in Alaska signed me up to an INTERNET discussion forum (called
 Native-Net out of Maine, I believe) without my permission. I've long since
 run out of patience deleting the stuff that comes a half dozen times per day,
 and I am trying to get off the mailing list. Repeated letters to the tender
 of the list have had no effect. He answered one with an apologetic promise to
 take me off but to no avail; I still get its frequent mailings.
     Question: How do you drop off these infernal things?
    I have no problem getting on and off of LISTSERVs on BITNET, but
 these Internet forums appear to function differently. Would appreciate
 help from anyone, plus a tip on where to find HELP for future
 problems of this type.
                          Thanks.
