Presumably the system recognized it or he would not have gotten a response back, no?
Presumably so. But it looks like it didn't and it occured to me that some list managers only accept commands in the body. My thought was that maybe part of the MLM was responding to the unsubscribe command and not enforcing such a rule while the code that actually alters the MLM's subscribers list was enforcing the rule and not doing anything. Anyway, it looks like Stephen Boddy hit the nail on the head :) . -- Lamont R.
