Actually, it's worse than that. In order to FIND the list and the link/insruction to subscribe to it, you go to the website, and the two links for subscribing and unsubscribing via e-mail are right *there* together in that one place.

Scary....

On the many mailing lists where I see these poorly directed unsubscribe emails, nearly all of them contain the single word "unsubscribe" and nothing else. Couldn't the mailing list software be updated to detect these emails and to reject them? Or at least put them into a moderation queue so threads like this one don't get started?

Could even just send an autoresponse back to the sender advising them where they should look in order to find out the unsubscribe instructions.
