Might be best to start here and CC to the "criminals" who insist on
adding ads.
Also might be worth looking around for a list server that is less tacky.
Maybe you qualify for JISCMAIL.
I'm on the receiving end of both, and manage Listserv list. The latter
is not too difficult to run.

Hmm - rest assured this was not attached to the email when dispatched to
the
list. It was also sent to various Yahoo! based lists and might have
become
associated with it that way. The original was sent to BIG-Chat, a Yahoo!
list, and cc'd to this list.....and, Andy, many thanks for your kind
comment
about my contribution :-)
