ofcourse I don't want them to know the address for the very same reason, spam to the list.. besides, they subscribe thru a form in my site not by email to the -subscribe address.. and cancel their subscription thru a form too.. now I'm getting huge loads of spam not only to my list, but to my sender's address which I can't change because all my subscribers are advised to mark this address as 'safe sender' in hotmail and yahoo and others..

it's not that large really, just a couple of thousands.. see? what if it's hundreds of thousands???? I guess I'd be having diabetes by now -:)
