Hmm, I have a theory about the unsubbing problem. Correct me if I'm wrong...

My theory is that this one address has been broken all along, and causing 
bounces to the list server. When they added the unsubbing logic to Sympa, 
they did it wrong, and instead of unsubbing the broken address, it unsubbed 
the person that send the message that triggered the bounce. So as long as you 
lurked you were okay, but as soon as you sent a message you were kicked off.

Now, their broken-fix for the broken-fix is to pass on the bounces instead of 
handling them properly.
