Yes there is, James.  Scroll down to the bottom.  You'll see the following:

Then, below that, there's a box for you to insert your email address, and 
an "Edit Options" button.  Try it.  It'll take you to a web-page where you 
can unsubscribe.

Why else would you join an email list, if not to get the messages?  Perhaps 
you don't have any experience with email lists?  If not, then a question 
about how they work will elicit some answers.  Some of us are actually in 
the email-list business, and will be happy to direct you to webpages where 
you can learn all about them.

You could join the 'digest' version, and get only one email with lots of 
posts.  Generally this saves about a third of the bandwidth and disk space, 
by doing away with a lot of duplicated header information.

Sorry, we're list-members, we can't do it.  But we can tell you how to do 
it, and I just did.

Again, there is <smile>.
