It's odd... I think it's been 7 or 8 years since I used a mailing list
where subscribe/unsubscribe commands were supposed to be sent to the

it's still a weekly occurrence that someone tries to use this method.
The posters seem pretty clueful. Are there a lot of n00b lurkers?
Even that doesn't track. Assuming (and I realize this is a big
assumption) the distribution of list management software is typical on
the various lists I see, I would expect most "newbies" would not have
encountered the "send a message to the list with 'unsubscribe' in the
subject" type of interface.
Oh, wait. I see directions like that in spam.
Never mind. *grumble*
