He could simply be a list subscriber and sign up via the web interface and then reply to the confirmation mail that was sent to his list? I guess I need to go back and look at the Mailman interface. Barring that, some monkey business with mail(1) and the right command switches could produce a similar effect. Keith might allow us to know what list he and he relative are on, as well --- if this (above) is the case, it might be possible to, at the very least, get <<them, that is, the list>> unsubscribed.
