Zac, I tried it myself using a different email account to dev list and it works as expected. This is what I got as confirmations:
1) first an email titled "confirm unsubscribe from [email protected]" .. 2) follow its steps to send to the confirmation address, then you'll receive an email titled "GOODBYE from [email protected]" .. Content as: ------------ Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the [email protected] mailing list. I'm working for my owner, who can be reached at [email protected]. Acknowledgment: I have removed the address xxxxxxxx from the dev mailing list. This address is no longer a subscriber. ------------ Guozhang On Thu, Mar 23, 2017 at 11:23 AM, Zac Harvey <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi how do I unsubscribe from this mailist list, the details in the docs > are not the correct set of steps. > > ________________________________ > From: Zac Harvey <[email protected]> > Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2017 10:03:48 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Mailing list docs are misleading/broken/outdated > > I am trying to unsubscribe to this mailing list.
