The problem is typical with mailing lists. You subscribe from e.g.
[EMAIL PROTECTED], BUT this is generic, the software crosschecks
this with your actual origin, i.e. [EMAIL PROTECTED], and
thinks you are trying to fake an unsubscribe and disallows it.
Or there is some change in the listserver and mail to an old name
still gets to a machine, but mail originating from the machine claims
it is from a different place.
