Just reply as-is. Don't change the body at all. I just unsubscrib= ed and resubscribed and it worked fine. My steps:

1. send "unsubscribe" in the body to ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org from my subscribed email= address.
2. get back an email for confirmation.
3. hit reply, hit send. It looked something like this:

I didn't change the body at all. Do make sure that it too is sent from = the subscribed address. (I use email address extensions to sort into mailbo= xes and track spammers... like Nicholas Meyler!)

4. Get a final response that you've been unsubscribed.

Extra data: I'm using osx's mail.app and sending/receiving plain te= xt email. Your mail client should also be sending plain text email to ruby-= talk-ctl@.
