Is that a manual process? Do they send the unsubscribe to you and then you
take them off the list or is that a scripted feature of 2.1 that is not
available in 2.0.

If it is not manual how did you go about configuring it.. 

Thanks for your help..

I use v2.1.1, and have a lot of lists set up as "Newsletter" style, and 
none of the users are given passwords.  Since I don't allow archiving of 
the newsletters, and they don't want/need to go to the web page to change 
their settings, they are subscribed and unsubscribed without notices being 
sent to the members.
