I am channeling your listserver and it tells me to tell you:

"This message didn't go through because it looks an administrative
request/command.  In particular, it looks like someone is trying to 
unzubscribe by typing the word 'c@ncel' in their message.

Because this poor soul needs h*lp, and because I don't want to sling
their requests to every member, I sent it to you for your personal
edification and/or action."

the /s are delimiters for the match.  the \b are delimiters, too,
specifying that the match has to be on a word boundary.
