Most lists do ... but if messages from the listserv are currently being
bounced at the recipient...   

I have gotten such messages from various lists while my VPS provider
performs maintenance.  But the issue is resolved prior to be auto
-unsubscribed so I actually received the warning message.

This is the nature of e-mail.  It is never anything more than "best
effort".

Not really odd - the issue bouncing the messages has been resolved, so
the unsubscribe message comes through - it is usually sent after the
unsubscription.

The key variable is Time.

Using a 'cloud' e-mail provider means you will never really know what
is going on.  That is the price to the paid for the convenience.
