Using the mechansims described in the List-Unsubscribe header:

List-Unsubscribe:       
<https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus>,  
<mailto:info-cyrus-requ...@lists.andrew.cmu.edu?subject=unsubscribe>

Having said that, European Union countries usually require that the mechanisms 
be easy to use. In my view, that means that they should be described in the 
message footer (not hidden in a header). The more obvious paths from the URLs 
listed in the footer require cyrus.edu accounts for unsubscription.

The argument that list members ought to be able to find the List-Unsubscribe 
header because they're email professionals doesn't wash. It can't be presumed 
that they all are, and those that aren't will be wanting to unsubscribe.
