Note that this may not necessarily work, as I described in a message I just sent to the list. It doesn't matter what address he's ultimately receiving mail at, it matters what address the list is sending him mail at. And for various reasons, those may not be the same. The list may receive the above, look for [EMAIL PROTECTED], not find it as a subscribed address, and just give up (or give some error message). To find out what address to plug into the above address, one needs to look for a header like: Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Then, take the part between the number (in this case 47506) and the '@' and plug that into the tomcat-user-unsubscribe address. > That should end up with the right mail address being sent to ezmlm > and your confirmation email hopefully will end up in your inbox. > > Then reply to that and it should work.
