This is confusing and would likely lead to erroneous messages to the
actual list, so allowing myself to reply...

As per the mail headers:
List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:debian-security-request@lists.debian.org?subject=unsubscribe>

You can send a mail to debian-security-request@lists.debian.org with
'unsubscribe' as Subject and any body.
Please note that this is not debian-security@lists.debian.org itself.

For what it's worth, RFC 2369 headers are fairly old and quite a few
clients should support these and have an option hidden somewhere
'unsubscribe to the list' that will do exactly that.


Sorry for the noise to all who don't care,

Dominique Martinet | Asmadeus,
Not that it's going to prevent more of these emails in the future, but,
hey, I tried.

Allow me to add some more noise.

The original mail was sent to the debian-security-announce mailinglist, 
not this list. The unsubscribe address for that list is:

List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:debian-security-announce-request@lists.debian.org?subject=unsubscribe>

And now me.. I didn't notice that (about the Announce list)
originally. I've seen it happen a few times across the Net. It doesn't
seem like that should be able to occur. It seems like Announce lists
are regularly intended as a one-way admin only message source..

Or not?

Just thinking out loud... that maybe the Announce list settings might
need a quick once-over review depending on admin's intentions for it.
:)

Or not. :)

The ability to send mail to the debian-security-announce list is
restricted, and the settings work as intended. Note that Debian security
announcements include a Reply-To header redirecting replies to the
debian-security@lists.debian.org discussion list, so it's possible to
send a reply and think that it did go through, when in fact it went to a
different mailing list. In fact, that's exactly what's happening here.
This thread is taking place on debian-security@lists.debian.org, even
though it was triggered by a reply to a security announcement on
debian-security-announce.

Good deal. Crossed my mind that I didn't receive 2 copies but didn't
think about checking online archives before posting my response. It's
a great tip suggestion to now have in mind for those other unrelated
listservs where it *does* happen, most often on federal dotGov
government listservs of all things. *grin*
