I like the current software it is much easier to signoff a previous
address if you you change ISP and forget to signoff before the change. Not
that I would normally forget to signoff one address before moving to the
new.  I had signed off PLUG before moving to Melbourne but my old address
was re-signed on with the move to the new list managing software. The new
list software made it easy to remove my old subsription.  I have had some
sad stories trying to unsubscribe from majordomo lists that kept telling
me I was trying to unsubscribe from an address that I wasn't subscribed
from.
