A member of the List emailed me privately in response to a technical query I had. He explained that he has been unsubscribed from this list, the notification of which was a blank email with only a subject line.

I've been so much struck over the years by the open and generous spirit of this list, even when opinions differ and the differences are expressed robustly.  Of course, I am not party to whatever the circumstances are in this instance, but I'm not aware of anything appearing recently that seemed offensive.

I'm one of the three administrators of the Internet Eczema Mailing List, of which I've been a member since 1996 (www.eczema.ndo.co.uk). From time to time it has been necessary to unsubscribe individuals but that is never done without communicating the perceived concerns to the individual, and never without a consensus of opinion between the administrators.

It seems a matter of some concern if a person can be unsubscribed from here in a manner that is arbitrary.

Kind regards,

David.
