I'm not sure what kind of mail list software apache uses on their
backend, but it sounds like they need to implement a feature equivalent
to one that mailman has:
----
(Administrivia filter) Check postings and intercept ones that seem to be
administrative requests? - If you activate this feature Mailman will
check traffic for administrative requests that have inadvertently been
sent to the list. This will prevent the classic case of a user sending a
note to the entire list membership saying "unsubscribe."

this would take care of emails that can not be accessed by the user.

Gavin,
Thanks for suggestion, I added your comment. I'm a moderator of those
lists (or I was since I did not see a message to moderat since
09/14/07. BTW is that normal, even if I prefer it ? ;o) but I don't
know (or have the rights) to remove Cahn from the list.
And like David said already many times.Two common problems people run
into:
1. sending the message from an email address different from the one
subscribed
2. receiving the reply, but having it caught by a junk mail filter
BTW I think it would be fair to actualise the content of

Could an admin please remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] manually?
In general pointing to the documentation works. However, in this
case it
seems that Cahn is unable to follow the directions on the Mailing Lists
page.
Additionally, the following explicit instructions could be added to the
Mailing Lists page ... "To unsubscribe from any of the following
lists, you
need to send an empty, subjectless email to unsubscribe address listed
below. In other words, click the appropriate unsubscribe link below
and
press send."

Should there be a way to unsubscribe an email address
from the list. It's been requested many times.
Thanks.
