Please look at the headers of a ruby-talk email.

And if you don't have a clue of what a "header" is:

X-ML-Name: ruby-talk
X-Mail-Count: 306167
X-MLServer: fml [fml 4.0.3 release (20011202/4.0.3)]; post only (only
members can post)
X-ML-Info: If you have a question, send e-mail with the body
"help" (without quotes) to the address ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org;
help=<mailto:ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org?body=help>
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.7-deb (2006-10-05) on

You omitted the interesting bit:

List-Id: ruby-talk.ruby-lang.org
List-Software: fml [fml 4.0.3 release (20011202/4.0.3)]
List-Post: <mailto:ruby-talk@ruby-lang.org>
List-Owner: <mailto:ruby-talk-admin@ruby-lang.org>
List-Help: <mailto:ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org?body=help>
List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org?body=unsubscribe>

Cheers

On the other hand, I'd venture to guess that a large proportion of people
who need to resort to sending a post to a list to ask how to unsubscribe
don't know how to view the headers.

Many popular mail-clients bury headers under one or more levels of
user-friendliness. For example gmail, has a show details link, which
DOESN'T show the headers. You have to click on a pull-down list next to the
reply link and select " Show original"

So, for the OP if you still haven't managed to unsubscribe, the way to do it
is to send an email from the email address which is receiving the postings
to ruby-talk-ctl@ruby-lang.org with just the text unsubscribe as the body of
the email.
