Backbytes, an irreverent and offbeat look at the lighter side of technology in blog format computing computing

Just call us ‘Snackbites’

Just in time for Christmas, the ideal present for anyone who isn’t worth spending money on: the Backbytes Lunchtime Snack Book.
Well, it’s not really a book, it’s an email, but there’s no need to scour Amazon for it. Instead, just send a mail to Backbytes
entitled: ‘Yum’ and our magic automated system will send you the anthology of sandwich recipes published in our columns over the last couple of months, plus a few exciting ones that we’ve held back for publication.
We’d like to assure you that every recipe has been rigorously tested, but like most cookery writers these days, we’re far too busy for that tedious chore, so like everything that comes out of Backbytes, treat it with caution. Or better still, feed the sandwiches to your colleagues first.

Not about sandwiches! I just tried unsubscribing from Sun Microsystems newsletter, clicked on the appropriate link, and ticked "do not want to receive the newsletter". This was not acceptable as I had not told them whether I did not want to receive it in text or HTML! (See link https://see.sun.com/Apps/DCS/mcp?r=700431Rv4A7Z70120003r770431Rv0mzXe8zXhr

I can't seem to get the email to work. I've tried Yum, 'Yum' and ‘Yum’ as the subject line but no reply. I assume I should be sending to back_bytes.vnu.co.uk.
