The problem here is that John DOESN'T want to post to VSNET.
Neither does he want to receive ANY posts from VSNET.  He has
unsubscribed to ALL lists, yet he still receives dozens
of messages every day. I have even tried to unsubscribe him from
one of my mail accounts (with his address of course), with no
success.

He naturally assumes that if he's still receiving mail from VSNET, he 
must still be subscribed.  Therefore when his messages to VSNET bounce, 
telling him he's not subscribed he goes barmy (naturally), and 
asks his mates to send messages on his behalf to VSNET - which 
is what we do - in the hope that someone will realise what is 
happening.

To end all this, all that needs to be done is for VSNET to forget
that John Greaves exists, remove his name from every computer
in Kyoto, and get on with the business of the day - please!

John has made many a valuable contribution to VSNET & variable
star astronomy over the past few years. Now all he wants is
a quiet, VSNET free life.  He doesn't deserve to be treated 
this way.
