I don't know if I should laugh or cry

To my Suzuki Savage mailing list:

Stop emailing me!!!

[name deleted]
Global Service Logistics
Diebold INC
Technical Specialist
Test Equipment

I don't know which is worse, that an equipment testing tech specialist for the people who are selling election machines can't even figure out that he's on a mailing list (much less how to get off it), or that people who are so amazingly technically incompetent manage to rig elections with their machines.

EDIT: He sent this exact e-mail at least 5 times to the list. We should've never let Diebold on the internet ;P.

EDIT THE SECOND: Apparently he's been trying to unsubscribe for months. Contacted Yahoo, unsubscribed multiple times, etc. However, the sort of thinking that leads one to spam a mailing list telling them to do something there are entirely incapable of doing, rather than e-mailing them once asking for help, definitely explains a lot about our favorite election riggers enablers.

It now behooves every single person on the list to respond to him personally to explain the situation. In small words.

Oy.

Especially since often, mailing-list emails contain unsubscribe instructions in the headers, or even better, the headers contain a link you can click to unsubscribe.

This is a yahoogroup, so every e-mail has that info at the end. However, see the second edit.

Heh.
