[Mailman-Users] 3rd party email unsubscribe request fails

[Michael Belanger]

Folks,
I have recently set up Mailman version 2.1.13.  Everything works as
expected except for the email form I use on my website to unsubscribe
folks.  

It takes and email address submission and composes an email to 
listname-requ...@listserv.mydomain.org   with body of:

unsubscribe address=submit...@email.adr
end

apache gets an email response from mailman as follows:
...


The results of your email command are provided below. Attached is your
original message.

- Results:
    Usage:
    
    unsubscribe [password] [address=<address>]
        Unsubscribe from the mailing list.  If given, your password must
match
        your current password.  If omitted, a confirmation email will be
sent
        to the unsubscribing address. If you wish to unsubscribe an
address
        other than the address you sent this request from, you may
specify
        `address=<address>' (no brackets around the email address, and
no
        quotes!)


- Unprocessed:
    unsubscribe address=exam...@yahoo.com
    end

- Done.


I have a similar form for subscribe requests that works as expected.  my
webserver sends the requests as apa...@mydomain.org.  It is not an
admin, moderator, or list member of the list I am trying to modify.  

Is there something wrong with apa...@mydomain.org sending the
unsubscribe request?  As I understand it, if the request is sent w/o
password, the user must confirm the request -- which is exactly what I
want.  

Regards,
