[B-Greek] "Please remove me from the list" requests

That sounds like a good idea to me.  I think it's very inconsiderate for 
people to spam the thousands of list members with their little 
unsubscribe requests, when every single message has the URL where they 
can unsubscribe.  Maybe an explicit note in the footer about 
unsubscription would catch a few.

Seems like the season -- did people resolve to leave the list in 2006 or 
something?  :-D
