[Meta] Moderation request diversion?
There seem to be a lot of people trying to unsubscribe via the main
address, rather than following the instructions from the welcome
email. Of course, this is not all that surprising, but it leads to a
lot of pointless threads*. Is there a way to enable automatic
detection and diversion of such requests? I don't know what
particular software is running this list, but mailman, for example,
has such a capability. I feel that such a thing would improve the
signal-to-noise ratio of this valuable list. Thanks.

The mailing lists are operated by the ASF. I've asked whether it's
possible here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-20186

Still noticing this problem quite a bit, both on the user and dev lists. I
notice that it appears to be using ezmlm as the software. Is there any
chance the list owner (someone at Databricks?) can take a look at
restricting messages based on seeing the word "Unsubscribe" in the
subject? It appears to be possible; see:
