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.

   Lets face it: even if we had complete leisure and infinite money
We would never find anything as interesting as the internet to work on
