Did you exactly try one of these procedures? Did you make sure that the
command is in the body of the email and not in the subject line?

Unsubscribing from mailing lists
Your original intro message contains the exact command which should be
used to remove your address from the list. However, in most cases, you
may simply send the command "unsubscribe" followed by the list name:
unsubscribe demo-list
(This command may fail if your provider has changed the way your address
is shown in your mail.)
To remove an address other than the one from which you're sending the
request, give that address in the command:
unsubscribe demo-list jqpublic@(protected)
In either of these cases, you can tell Majordomo@(protected) to remove
the address in question from all lists on this server by using "*" in
place of the list name:
unsubscribe *
unsubscribe * jqpublic@(protected)
Finding the lists to which an address is subscribed
To find the lists to which your address is subscribed, send this command
in the body of a mail message to Majordomo@(protected):
which
You can look for other addresses, or parts of an address, by specifying
the text for which Majordomo should search. For instance, to find which
users at my-isp.com are subscribed to which lists, you might send the
command
which my-isp.com
