I found this site helps

unfortunately his persmissions are WRONG! don't set your unsubscribe
script perms 755 instead use 750 (not world readable), and then chgrp
it to group 'list' or whatever group you run mailman as.

I use this for my email list and I set the reply-to to be the remove addy.
It's an announcement list, so all replies go to the proper place to
unsubscribe.
