When you subscribe, an email is sent to you with a link to click for confirmation. Often, the link will break into two lines of text, and sometimes this will cause only the first line of text to be a link.

SOLUTION:
What you will have to do is copy the link and paste it into your browser address bar, possibly even one line at a time.

For example, if you see this in your email:

then you need to copy the ENTIRE link into your browser address bar like this:

DO NOT TRY TO DO THIS:

as it simply will not work, and you will get frustrated. The actual PIN is the 4- or 5-digit number at the end of the link (the PIN shown is 7095). These are randomly generated by the computer, and you can save it to unsubscribe, or you can visit the Newsletter Page and unsubscribe there, should you decide you no longer wish to receive Lesko's Lessons.

HELPFUL HINTS:
One thing you can do is upgrade your email program. This will help you receive links properly in the future.

When you subscribe, an email is sent to you with a link to click for confirmation. This will not happen when you unsubscribe. Writing to the list owner will not work, because, as you can see at the top of each email, THE LIST OWNER IS AN UNATTENDED BOX.

SOLUTION:
What you will have to do is go to the bottom of any newsletter, where you will see your personal unsubscription link. It will look something like this:

so if you click on that link, it will unsubscribe you.

Another way to unsubscribe yourself is to go to the Newsletter Page and type in your email address, and hit unsubscribe. You need to know which list you're on to unsubscribe.

When you subscribe, an email is sent to you with a link to click for confirmation. We do this for a variety of reasons. Those reasons to not apply to unsubscriptions, so you will not get a confirmation email when you unsubscribe.

SOLUTION:
Do nothing. You can resubscribe at any time, and can still check the archives by going to the Newsletter Page.

Subscriptions and unsubscriptions are handled by the server.

SOLUTION:
If you saved your confirmation email, you can simply click the confirmation link again and you will be resubscribed. If you did not save it, you can go to the Newsletter Page and enter your email again to subscribe. You will then be sent a confirmation email. You must click the link in the confirmation email to be resubscribed.
