Check at the bottom of the email with the subject "Majordomo results: unsubscribe freebsd-security-notifications" that is returned when you send the authentication code. You should find the following: **** **** Thanks! **** **** [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>>> auth 2cd8eff3 subscribe freebsd-security-notifications Succeeded. I don't know why it sends the next "Confirmation for unsubscribe freebsd-security-notifications" email, but if "Majordomo results:" show succeeded you have already unsubscribed from the list and just need to ignore the "Confirmation for unsubscribe" email that follows.
