I want to allow a list subscriber to unsubscribe themselves. I have a scenario  “unsubscribe.subscriber” configured

 

title.gettext  owners & subscribers only

 

is_subscriber([listname],[email])             smtp,dkim,smime,md5    -> do_it,notify

is_owner([listname],[email])       smtp,dkim,smime,md5 -> do_it

is_listmaster([sender])            smtp,dkim,md5,smime  -> do_it

true()                             smtp,dkim,md5,smime -> reject(reason='unsub_closed')

 

But emailing sympa the command “unsubscribe listname address@concealed” from address@concealed allows B to unsubscribe A, even though B is not the list subscriber or even A list subscriber.

 

I also tried

is_subscriber([listname],[sender])             smtp,dkim,smime,md5    -> do_it,notify

 

Am I missing something, or must I restrict unsubscribe to owners and/or listmasters if I don’t want it open?

 

Thanks

Betty
