Today I received multiple messages--that is, several individual copies of the same message--from the editors of a literary magazine. You see, when you submit to the journal electronically, you are automatically added to the magazine's mailing list. That's a fair deal (if you don't want to know what's going on with a particular journal or magazine, you probably shouldn't be submitting to it in the first place).
However, that doesn't mean the journal should add your e-mail address to its list anew EACH time you submit. I've now encountered this situation more than once (meaning with more than one publication). Which, I've decided, makes the problem rant-worthy. Editors, please heed the peeve!
