Would SKS give me the address to unsubscribe? I envy your talent for mapping, but it is beyond my ability or interest, so after some time, I need to disconnect.

GENERALLY, ATTEMPTING TO UNSUSCRIBE IS A BAD PRACTICE. IT CONFIRMS TO THE SENDER THAT THE ADDRESS HE USED IS INDEED A VALID ADDRESS. LISTS OF VALID ADDRESSES ARE VERY VALUABLE AT THE PRESENT TIME.

The confirmation is the fact that the messages are sent you to and not returned. to the sender.
