TMNT Mailing List

I'm on that mailing list and get way to much mail. I don't check it every day, so when I do there's on average, over a hundred messages. I'll never read all those, and half of them are garbage. Is there a way to reduce the number or get off the mailing list?

Why didn't you just ask the others at the mailing list?

I'll let HT handle this one. I lurk there but never use any of the features.

I actually have never sent anything because I don't know how and I dislike a lot of the topics.

It's like a TMNT message board, but sent to your E-Mail.

Except from what I have read there's a lot of unrelated topics. They are also here, but there's organization here. So the E-mails just poor in randomly. So how do you get off of the mailing list?

To get off the mailing list (assuming it's one of the Yahoo! ones) go to the group homepage, click "Edit my membership". You can unsubscribe, or simply turn off the emails, meaning you don't get mail, but you're still a member.

If your on the TMNT yahoogroups (I think they are all off yahoogroups now) then you can also set up your messages so that it won't go into your inbox. In other words, if there's too much email, then set it up in the yahoogroups setting to check the messages at the website (TMNT yahoogroup) instead of going to your inbox. That's esp. what you should do over a vacation, ohterwise your inbox will be filled.

One of my friends signed my email up to some TMNT porn mailing list once. Not surprisingly, I saw a lot of people from this board on it.

a "friend", eh? I know I joined it for Skeleton Crew's contest. Someone on here had an entry she wanted me to see. I wonder if I ever unsubscribed or not.

Savanti: I'm on the list too, but I made it so I just receive "Daily Digests." I get one email a day with all the messages on it, so I can pick and choose which ones to read (usually none )

To be honest, I have been a TMNT mailing list junkie since 1997. These new fangled message board things are still fairly new to me.

First, there was the TMNT-L. It's a listserv based mailing list that existed first. But a handful of us on that got so fed up with the sissy rules, another mailing list existing on the barest of common courtesy net-ettiqutte was created. The NTML!

While a lurker TMNT fan named Andrew Modeen had created that group, I had been the List Moderator for it since 1999. Since this list is still popular among many vetern (fangrrls), we tend to talk about anything and everything. Like a message board, but not broken up in neat little sections though. Hence, the Genral Discussion is mixed in with the Turtle talk, and you get it all!

But anyway, here's what you do to manage the list mail you get from the NTML and related Yahoo based Groups.

NTML - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tmnt
TMNT Naughti - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tmntnaughti
TMNT2 - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tmnt2

After you click on those pages, look over to the right had side of the screen (but under the Yahoo ads). Click on 'Edit My Membership". In there, you can change things like HOW you want to get the messages. The default setting is "Individual Email", but you can set it to "Digest Mail" (which is all the email messages lumped into one fat email, and sent once every day), or just "No Email", and you look at the messages through the Yahoo Groups websites.

If you are not interested in the Group at all, scroll down to the botton, and right next to the submit info buttons, is the "Leave Group" button. Click on that, and you go bye-bye.

I prefer members to cancel their subscription this way. But if you are totally lost and helpless, I can see about extracting you from the NTML Group manually myself.
