No problem.

Hmm. That's weird. Here's the page to use:

http://lists.svlug.org/lists/listinfo/svlug

If you don't have your list password (so only you can access or
unsubscribe from your account)
1) In the "svlug Subscribers" box enter your email address & click the
"Unsubscribe or edit options" button.
2) click the "password reminder" button to have a copy of your password
mailed to your account.
3) Receive your pw & use it starting from the same page above to
unsubscribe.

I'm cc'ing the list maintainer with this message.  Maybe he will have
some helpful suggestions.

No problem.

Sita - do you live here in the San Fran Bay Area? I ask cause I'm
wondering if I can direct you to a more "new user", introductory level,
Linux user group in your area.

Send your reply to the svlug list so any of us can help you.

Best wishes. :)
