Maybe you should read the help file.

You should also have received a notification when you subscribed
and it would have had the mail address that you subscribed to in
that mail.  You will find it good to keep copies of the majordomo
replies.

And when you have problems you send a quest like this

majorodomo@freebsd.org

In the body type

help
end

You will get a reply.

You WILL see this in that reply.

========
To remove an address other than the one from which you're sending
the request, give that address in the command:

	unsubscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com

In either of these cases, you can tell Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG to remove
the address in question from all lists on this server by using "*"
in place of the list name:

	unsubscribe *
	unsubscribe * jqpublic@my-isp.com


========
All posts have this line - but you can't expect a one line reminded
to cover all cases.  Majordomo readers are usually expected to real
the appropriate documentation.

And when that didn't work you should have gotten the help file and
not posted to the list.
