For me, this message - from jonathon, using gmail - did NOT contain the 
bottom-of-message instructions.  

However, enough messages (the majority) _do_ include the bottom-of-message 
unsubscribe instructions that the troll called "m.a.martin" could not have 
missed them. 

If it actually has a subscription problem (and isn't just a full-on troll), 
then it probably subscribed via an address that it rarely uses, but has 
forwarded to its other address(es). Maybe the troll should learn to read 
message headers, to find out the path followed by the list-mail that lands in 
its in-box.

If it ever actually tried to unsubscribe (which is probably a lie), I wonder if 
the troll:
a) bothered to read the confirmation request message
b) bothered to notice if a confirmation request message arrived
c) bothered to check if his/its spam-blocker was blocking the confirmation 
request...    etc., etc., etc.

OR, one of its "friends" might have jokingly subscribed it, because it allowed 
the "friend" to know the access info for its e-mail account. Some people would 
have the grace to be embarrassed by the results of their own carelessness. 
Trolls, of course, are not.

We should stop feeding the troll, and whoever's in charge of the list should:
a) block its messages from reaching the list
b) then, after letting it suffer another week, unsubscribe it.
