That's getting a real problem here too. I feel that a responsible
automatic mail server should be auditing its readership once in a
while and asking readers to specifically re-subscribe. I also feel
that not enough is done to give sysadmins facilities to unsubscribe to
mailing lists on behalf of dead accounts. [My apologies if such
facilities do exist, its just that it can be difficult to locate the
address for unsubscription without prying into a user's mailbox].
