(Replied earlier but got an error message because the list thinks the
subject looks like a remove request)
Is your mailbox near full, or any other reason emails to you would bounce?
Fairly common for list software to automatically unsubscribe accounts with
errors.
You haven’t missed anything. Maybe Bruno will post the cool thing he posted
to Twitter today.

2nd try, my first follup attempt still hadn't shown up after twenty
minutes, either in the archive or emailed back to me... FWIW, I managed
to set and unset vacation mode just before this retry, so at least that
part of freelists still thinks I'm subscribed.
Retry: OK, as I thought, unsub security is solely via email confirmation.
So I changed my email password to be on the safe side. But it was a
relatively new password before that, fairly strong, and I had no other
reason whatsoever to think it was compromised.
And, a clue: First time I resubscribed today, I did not see the freelists
ToS agreement page. Second time, after explicitly unsubscribing, when I
resubscribed I did see the ToS agreement page.
Which suggests to me that something may have happened to my entry on the
actual freelists arocket emails list, without altering my previous record
of consenting to the ToS. A bug? Or something. Just sayin'.

Interesting. Sometime between 4/10/20 22:34 and 22:36, I was unsubscribed
from the list - again. Second time in two weeks, the first being
midmorning MST of 3/27. I don't *think* I'd done anything flagrant in
either case, and I never heard from list management either time, so I'm
beginning to think someone may be messing with me.
Or is there some known issue where this just happens - has anyone else
been hit?
Gonna go run through the unsubscribe procedure to see what security's on
it, then resubscribe and go look into what that may have said about local
security issues...
