People who ask how to unsubscribe receive a message that tells them how to unsubscribe. I can see we differ on the definition of "unsolicited".Wow, what a great idea -- send unsolicited e-mail to people who put certain words in the subject of a message to a list. If they complain or ask questions, send their mail to /dev/null. Sorry, I just don't agree with this, even if it works. Besides, someone invariably writes to the list telling the person how to unsubscribe anyway.
Just because the response is automated instead of manually typed, that should not make it unwelcome. In fact Majordomo's default config intercepted messages that matched certain patterns and handled them appropriately instead of sending them to the list.
It is not unusual to expect some level of automation when using mailing lists. After all, that's why mailing list software exists.
