That service, Vade<br>Secure, appears to have a bug in their software. It was issuing<br>unsubscribes based on the "From:" address, rather than based on the<br>"Apparently-To:" address.<br><br>The email that triggers this has been removed from the list. We've also<br>alerted Vade Secure about the bug. I've tested this over the past day<br>and seen no notices.<br><br>A big thanks to John Levine, who helped debug the issue, and Adrien<br>Gendre at Vade Secure for helping us identify the email subscriber directly.<br><br>If the issue persists, please do let me know directly - I'll continue to<br>monitor unsubscribe requests to see if this pops up again.<br><br>Joe (list admin)<br><br>_______<br>internet-history mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:internet-history@postel.org" href="mailto:internet-history@postel.org">internet-history@postel.org</a><br><a href="http://mailman.postel.org/mailman/listinfo/internet-history" target="_blank">http://mailman.postel.org/mailman/listinfo/internet-history</a><br>Contact <a ymailto="mailto:list-owner@postel.org" href="mailto:list-owner@postel.org">list-owner@postel.org</a> for assistance.<br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></div></body></html>
