Unlikely it's that. More likely, its because you've replied to posts
without removing the msg_footer from the quoted material in your reply.
See, e.g.,
<https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2015-January/024152.html>.

Someone sees your post and thinks that's their unsubscribe link.

Be glad you didn't do what I once unthinkingly did at
<https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2010-December/070723.html>.
Every time Google, Bing, etc crawl that page, I get an unsub confirmation.
