I no longer have access to the address where I'm subscribed,
so I can't send my leave command
from there. How do I leave a list in this situation?
If you no longer have access to the email address where you received messages from a list (for example, if you leave Cornell and can no longer use your NetID address), you will need to contact the list administrators. Send a message to
owner-listname@cornell.edu
where listname is the name of the list you want to leave, including the hyphen and the letter L at the end of the listname. For example, after Phil quit his job at Cornell, he would send a message to
owner-sheep-shearing-L@cornell.edu
asking to be taken off the sheep shearing list.
The leave command doesn't seem
to work for me.
If you're getting error messages when you try to leave a list, and you've checked your spelling and syntax (see our Leaving a List page), you may be having a problem sending plain text, which is what Lyris needs.
But if you've read the information about sending plain text and the leave command still doesn't work for you, please contact the list administrators. Send a message to
owner-listname@cornell.edu
where listname is the name of the list you want to leave, including the hyphen and the letter L at the end of the listname. For example, if Phil was having problems getting off the sheep-shearing-L list, he would send a message to
owner-sheep-shearing-L@cornell.edu
asking to be taken off the sheep shearing list.
