The only commonality I see in the unsubbed "unsubscribe me" requests is that several appear to ocome via Gmane.
Do they have the header "X-Injected-Via-Gmane: http://gmane.org/"; ? All posts made through gmane include that header.
With that in mind, I posted a reply to this message via an unsubbed address (which is unfortunately going to cause a duplicate reply). Posting this way, there is no indication to the poster that they are subscribing to a mailing list vice posting to a newslist/forum.
That is because you are not subscribing to a mailing list. You will get no emails from the list. Messages are read using your newsreader, and posts are made through gmane.
<clip /> And from replying to the confirmation email: You are now authorized to post to the gmane.comp.openoffice.general newsgroup. The original message you sent to the newsgroup will be posted within ten minutes.
And now you can post to the newsgroup using your newsreader. All posts to the newsgroup are forwarded to the mailing list. You are not subscribed to the mailing list.
Using gmane has nothing to do with subscribing or unsubscribing to the mailing list.
