Not the way I did it. You were doing the escaping in the wrong place
IMHO --- the string passed to _complete_from_query() mustn't be escaped
already, because it is not only used to send a command to the backend,
but also to compare against the strings returned by the backend, which
won't be escaped. So the escaping needs to be done internally to
_complete_from_query(), and that eliminates the side-effects elsewhere.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
