That's probably the best clue so far; it wouldn't be hard for some
err, jokester, to falsify a mail or use the mailman interface to 
subscribe a list address somewhere else to a list here, would it?
He could simply be a list subscriber and sign up via the web interface
and then reply to the confirmation mail that was sent to his list?
I guess I need to go back and look at the Mailman interface.  Barring
that, some monkey business with mail(1) and the right command switches
could produce a similar effect.

Keith might allow us to know what list he and he relative are on,
as well --- if this (above) is the case, it might be possible to,
at the very least, get <<them, that is, the list>> unsubscribed.
