Unsubscribe difficulties	Can't Post

There is no unsubscribe button. I get mailings but the email signup button is all i can find on the site. Since I'm already receiving them, it would be a kindness for the site to have that unsubscribe button. I can only suspect that the more signed up, the better in some rating system PW is competing in. Emails to various available depts/people have resulted in no help for this. Have not been able to block PW emails using my "black" list. What's up here? What's the secret to unsubscribing? Do I have to cross a palm with silver? Join a private club? Appeal to federal authorities? Send PW my first born great grandchild for indentured servitude? Change my name to Bush or Cheney? Oh, wait, I have family member who is in Special Forces. Maybe he can turn the right key in the back of the right person? You all know who you are.

Hi Marje--

Hope you received the email I sent you earlier. In case not, and for others who may have the same question, here's a recap:

As a non-profit organization, Poets & Writers relies on the financial support from the members of the Friends of Poets & Writers. Just like your public radio station, a few times a year we ask our constituents for their support. More information about the Friends program is at https://www.pw.org/...ds_poets_amp_writers. The email that you received asking you to consider becoming a Friend was sent to subscribers to our free e-newsletters and Poets & Writers Magazine.

We understand that some people do not like to receive communications like this, so it is easy to unsubscribe. Just follow the link at the bottom of the email that says "Safe Unsubscribe." You can also manage your P&W email subscriptions is in the 'My Poets & Writers' section of our website: http://www.pw.org/mypw. After you log in here, visit the section on the right-hand side below the heading, 'Mailing Lists.' Here, you may update your email address, as well as subscribe to other newsletters from Poets & Writers.

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Auzelle

Nice try, my friend. But there's no button to unsubscribe at the end of any posts i get. Just text. Could i use the add hyperlink feature to turn that plain text into a button? Or should i figure out a way to make the posts rich text? had not thought of that before. will poke around and see if there's a rich text option. If not, I'm still being reminded every day with three e-mail postings to not click on any offers of any kind. And, no, so far i have not received an e-mail from you.

I'm sorry you're still having troubles! I have unsubscribed you from our lists manually, so you won't receive anything in the future.
