starting to unsubscribe from all the crap emails I get every day. couldn't figure out how to get rid of Patch; first, they make you login before you can unsubscribe. then once you login, they require you to create a profile. I didn't want to do that. finally I broke down today and typed in "not now" for my name, and clicked "Create Profile". it failed. so I was stuck in limbo. I went back to gmail and clicked "Report Spam and Unsubscribe". it sailed me right through Patch's unsubscribe process with no login. fucking amazing.

I also figured out how to unsubscribe from Yahoo groups; I apparently had used my jcomeau.com address. so I added that address to gmail and now I'm getting my confirmation messages. I didn't know how to set the "From" address on replies but today clicked the "To" address, and there was the option to set the "From". cool. I just got rid of 5 daily emails.
