I was just thinking that with this auto-desubscrption without notification to
the list manager, it would be real neat if one could email the list-bot for
personal details and get a full history of (de-)subscriptions, with reasons.
If traffic dries up, mail the bot to find your status.
[ better still if you could ask it to forward all email in the interval :-) ]
I'm interrupt driven -- with over 1500 messages/day I wouldn't notice if I fell
of a number of lists ...
