today's user gripe

Even if I weren't the mailing list admin for the whole damn ISP, I run about 20 mailing lists personally. Sending email to 'mailman-owner' that says only "Please Unsubscribe me@address.com . Thank you!" isn't going to get you anything but a (canned) reply:
You should have just received a monthly notice with the name of the
mailing list and the instructions you can follow to remove yourself
from the mailing list.
If you no longer have those instructions or if you are having problems
with them, please let us know the name of the mailing list involved
and we can try to assist you.
Thank you.
Ya know, a large part of why I keep and reuse these canned replies is so they continue to be polite even when I'm in a grumpy mood. (Not that I am today, I'm just sayin'...)
And for those of you who want more stupidity in your users/customers, you should be reading
customers_suck. Sometimes it's actually "customer_service_people_who_suck", but most of the time it's real facepalm material.
