This is a pretty normal problem with mailing lists, the standard response
is
to send a confirmation email for subscription and an alert email for
unsubscription.

The alert email has a one-click resubscribe, so all our Mallory can do here
is
attempt to subscribe me to an email list, and unsubscribe me such that when
I check
my email, I find the unsubscription and fix the problem.

If someone develops a persistent enemy who finds this form of mild
harassment satisfying,
you could add a user option "send a confirmation email before
unsubscription/any change".

For most users that's one step too many, but with that engaged, all that's
left is sending
spam requesting various changes.
