Please remove me from the mailing list

[Greg Feneis]

Hi, Just a thought about the footer and the wiki.

The footer directs the reader to update their subscription prefs or unsub
at lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucashuser-user

It also now directs Nabble or Gmane users to
wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information.

Since the link to the wiki also has a link to the mailing list, perhaps
make the footer just lead the reader to the wiki page.  Then embellish the
wiki page as needed.
  As things change, if more mirrors are supported, etc. or if ppl get
stuck, instructions could be added or removed or enhanced in this wiki page.

I'm thinking this would help keep the help footer small, which will help
make the CC this list Reply ALL request much more prominent.







Kind regards,

Greg Feneis
