Hello,
We have a perl-script called unsubscribe.
We run it as we take down student accounts at the end of term.
Basically it goes through a mailbox looking for mailgroup mail,
then it tries to figure out which listserver manages the list
and forges a suitable unsubscribe message.
It's rough but it's written,
if it is likely to be useful to anyone; mail me for a copy.
