Tell HN: Happy to test out your product but fix your emails

Also, remind me again what your product does and why I'd want to use it.

If it's been 6 to 8 weeks then I definitely forgot about your product and have no idea why I was interested in the first place. Remind me.

Also, please do not transfer your past product's mailing list to your new app's mailing list unless it's directly in line with or an add-on to the type of service I originally wanted to know more about.

I recently had this happen and even though I was actually very interested in their new product, I was put off enough that I unsubscribed from both. My email address is not your launchpad unless I'm subbed to your company's newsletter.

I have noticed a lot of companies waiting a few weeks and then surreptitiously adding me to their newsletter. I assume that the idea is that I will not remember that I did not subscribe to it, and am more likely to re-visit the website.
