Still noticing this problem quite a bit, both on the user and dev lists. I notice that it appears to be using ezmlm as the software. Is there any chance the list owner (someone at Databricks?) can take a look at restricting messages based on seeing the word "Unsubscribe" in the subject? It appears to be possible; see: http://untroubled.org/ezmlm/faq/Restricting-posts-based-on-the-Subject-line.html#Restricting-posts-based-on-the-Subject-line
