	Go to: <http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo>. Open up each list, 
enter in your email address near the bottom, press unsubscribe, and you 
should get an unsubscribe confirmation email-unless your spam blocker or 
something similar is deleting the confirmation emails.
	Either that, or you could login with your username and password and 
delete your subscription that way as well. Again, this has to be done 
for each mailing list you're subscribed to (or maybe there was a general 
method from the web interface, but I forget..).
Best of luck,
-Garrett
