mail -s unsubscribe debian-user-request@lists.debian.org < /dev/null

This line, typed in exactly, will get you unsubscribed from the list. 

Canned Explanation:

The bit of geek speak that ends all messages from the debian
user list: 

    mail -s unsubscribe debian-user-request@lists.debian.org < /dev/null

says how to unsubscribe. 

This means: To unsubscribe you must send mail with subject line
conataining only the word:
	unsubscribe
to the address:
	debian-user-request@lists.debian.org 
                    ^^^^^^^
with empty message body ( </dev/null ). The one non-obvious thing is
the request part of the name for changes. Sorry about that.
