Some of those I barely used, and only three are currently active - a work address and two private ones. The rest were either previous work addresses or attached to now-defunct personally-owned websites. One thing I've never done though is worry about mailing list subscriptions when I abandon an address. On the contrary, I quite like it as an effortless way to unsubscribe to a load of stuff I most likely lost interest in two days after subscribing anyway. Still, at least it finally looks like the West Midlands Lib Dems have stopped sending me updates, six months and at least nineteen 'unsubscribe' emails after leaving the West Midlands and even longer and more emails after ceasing to be a member of the party.
