For example, I unsubscribed from freebsd-security by sending: unsubscribe freebsd-security end ... in the body from my jasone@canonware.com account. Majordomo reported success, but I started receiving mail from that list a couple of days later. I went through this process twice, but on the third try, I sent: unsubscribe freebsd-security jasone@canonware.com unsubscribe security jasone@canonware.com end ... and it worked. I don't know enough about majordomo to be able to guess what caused the problem. BTW, this happened for 3 or 4 lists that I was unsubscribing from, so it didn't appear to be a fluke.
