I've never known an unsubscribe request to need identity confirmation. Are you sure you're asking the system to unsubscribe you not subscribe you?

I'm really not sure how, or even if it's possible, to escalate this to the next level. I've subscribed and unsubscribed to PHP lists various times with several addresses and have never had any issues.

I call PEBKAC.

Yes, I tried every link on that confirmation message when nothing would
work. And I am 110% positive I have used the confirmation-unsubscribe
link. It sends me a message asking if I am sure that I want to UNsubscribe.

Great, I am stuck receiving the email equivalent of spam(since I do not
want to receive it) for the rest of this email address's life. wtf.

no, you have to make sure that you are sending and receiving all messages through this account.

If you have more then one account configured in your email client, make sure when it sends out the message, that it is using the account that is registered with the php mailing list. I had the same problems years ago, until I realized that I was sending the requests from the wrong email account.

Not that I was submitting the wrong email address, but when I sent the request, it would send me the confirmation email, when I replied to that message, I used the wrong account because the default account in my email client was a different account then what I was getting the mailing list from.

Just a suggestion from someone that went through the exact same problem.
