You're right I hadn't got it. But if the unsubcribe procedure was broken
it's fixed now (btw the list admins can be reached at [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
I had no problem unsubscribing myself ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and
subscribing a new mail address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list.

Acknowledgment: I have removed the address

   [EMAIL PROTECTED]

from the wget mailing list. This address
is no longer a subscriber.
