If you really can't figure out how to unsubscribe from a list, you should contact the list owner, not the list. The list members can't unsubscribe you (and it isn't their job to) and the owner may not be subscribed to the list. The convention for lists is that adding '-owner' to the local part of the list email address will be an address for the owner. A good place to search to find out how to unsubscribe to a list is to search for the mailing lists using google. Usually the information on how to subscribe and unsubscribe are in the same place and you were able to find out how to subscribe in the first place, so you should be able to figure out how to unsubscribe by yourself as well. > > >  Also, it would be better to have a message foot saying how to unsubscribe. No, the standard is that the list information is kept in the headers so that it can be extracted by mail clients that care to. There is an RFC describing these headers. They are supplied by the mailing list software used for the Postgres mailing lists. Have your mail client display full headers for one of the list messages to get the instructions from there.
