unless, of course, someone happens to be writing a message with the

let you think this is picking a nit.... I run a list for parents of
one of my kid's schools, the school department runs another (badly)
-- it's very common for people to write to our list asking how to
(un)subscribe to the official school list
for that matter, on any list discussing mail handling, or perhaps
server-side software in general, I expect the word "unsubscribe" is
quite common
I've seen a number of lists where it was hard to put the word
unsubscribe in a message without it rejecting it..
Someone sent a message to the group of 'unsuscribe' (note the spelling).
I replied back 'to unsubscribe, send a message to
<unsubscr...@mailinglist.example.com>. List software denied my post -
telling me if I wish to unsubscribe, here's how to do it (oh... the
irony). So I tried again, this time saying 'if you wish to
unsuscribe , send a message to ..... List AGAIN saw the unsubscribe
address in my body of the message, and rejected it.
Can't remember how I got around it - I think I told the person to try
spelling it correctly. :)
