But, in fact, most people on most lists don't say "put me on your list
called 'shmizzle-announce' -- and don't you put me on any other lists"
-- they say "put me on your list so I can receive announcements about
shmizzles" and whether you maintain that as separate lists for
announcements about tall, medium, and short shmizzles with a
consolidated all-shmizzles list or as a single list for announcements
about shmizzles is really none of their concern, as long as you tell
themj how to leave the list, and don't send them anything off-charter
for what they agreed to.
