It's rather unlikely that the listmasters would see this message unless
you explicitly cc them (listmaster at lists.debian.org). Even then there
is a long backlog.
If you think another address might have been used, try saying
'unsubscribe jexss@gpi.uni-karlsruhe.de' or whatever rather than
'unsubscribe'.
