Since you are now managing the list, the owner/approval aliases should
point to your email address.
The aliases should be either in /etc/aliases or
/usr/share/majordomo/majordomo.aliases (substitute your own majordomo
installation directory path). Don't forget to run newaliases if you
are using sendmail.
Once you have the aliases set, send the unsubscribe request again. The
approval request will be sent to you with instructions.
If you want to find and/or change the list's subscribe/unsubscribe
policy, look at the file /usr/share/majordomo/lists/<my list>.config
and search for "subscribe_policy" and "unsubscribe_policy". There is
some documentation in the comments within the file.
I hope that helps. I'm a majordomo newbie too, so please correct me
if any of this is wrong. ;)
Good luck,
Veda
