This worked because it contains the command, listname and email all on one
line.

This unsubscribed YOU (the person sending it).. without an email listed, it
defaults to the sender for subscribe and unsubscribe.

It doesn't know what this is, it isn't a command it recognizes.

This is trying to unsubscribe the sender (you) again, but it already did
that two lines above.

Again, it doesn't recognize this as a command.  See the pattern?  You need
<command> <listname> <argument> all on one line.  I THINK if you have to
split the lines you could do a \ (I know you can with the auth command).

So:

unsubscribe hotnews \
email@address.here

Should work.  Thats your problem though, when the email address flips to a
line on its own.
