Some people obviosly send e-mail blindly without checking the
receiver. This may lead you into trouble, if you are sending
out sensitive material.

In the confirmation request message it is stated SEVERAL TIMES
the address where the confirmation should be sent. In the
Forest list policy it is also stressed that administrative
requests SHOULD NEVER BE ADDRESSED TO THE LIST ITSELF!

Without moderating the list I cannot prevent you from receiving messages
like this. I can write instructions, which should be by all means
decipherable, but if you cannot understand them, please ask the listowner,
before doing any foolishness.
