Definitely not by responding to a message in a thread, leaving its
subject line intact, and including all of the previous now-irrelevant
message.  In fact, I know of no mailing list whose procedure for
unsubscribing involves sending e-mail to all the thousands of members
of that list.  Yet people do that all the time.  ;-(

If you ever read the headers, which folks should do, you will find the
line:

List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:bind-users-request at isc.org?Subject=unsubscribe>

Breaking this down:
	send a message to bind-users-request at isc.org
	whose subject line is "unsubscribe".

Capish?
