  Hello There,
  
        Your name has been passed on to us as having an interest
        in the RMS Titanic.

If you are sincere, you have been misled.  But you should not take
such third-party input and subscribe people to mail distribution
lists.  

address@hidden is a mailing list for the developers of the Lynx
program.  You are either a spammer or the victim of a prank if
somethird party intentionally nominated this address for your
list.  Generally, you should not subscribe lists to lists without
manual coordination between the listowners.
  
        This is just a courtesy letter to verify this
        information, and if it is incorrect please reply to this message
        with the words 'Please
        Remove' in the subject line and we will remove your details from our
        mailing list.

This suggests that you are a spammer.  The protocol you are
following is improper.  What you have written is a discourtesy
letter.  The subcriber should have to confirm to be subscribed,
not deny to be de-subscribed.

For a support group on list administration, consider subscribing
to address@hidden mailing list.  This is a
Majordomo- administered list, i.e. write to
address@hidden for subscription
instructions.
