Hi Paul,
Sorry if you know this already, but what you're having trouble with isn't
anything to do with emailing the moderator or administrator of the mailing
list. Subscribing and unsubscribing are done by emailing the mail server
program, one address for subscribing, the other for unsubscribing. When it
works properly, which doesn't seem to be happening for you, it doesn't involve
a human being seeing the message and either ignoring it or doing something.
it's purely automated. I'm not sure that's been made clear yet.
Good luck, and sorry you're having so much trouble with this. I hope it gets
straightened out soon.
Joel

Nope. Nothing. Nada. "Total silence."
That is why I tried emailing the admins, because "unsubscribe" didn't
work. (Obviously few if any people here can confirm that, since if it worked
you wouldn't be here, and if it didn't you'd probably be in a tiny minority of
those who actually WANTED to unsubscribe).
I can see misspelling "unsusbscribe" once. But not 4 times.
Oh well - I'll try again one more time, then if it doesn't work, I'll
kill this email address altogether..

And what happened? Did you get any error message back from the software
running the list?
