That is usually the security feature of the mailing list software, in 
that often the header info is used to verify that you are not 
maliciously unsubscribiing someone else. Said in plainer english, if you 
have moved ISP's or changed browsers, you aren't you and you cannot 
unsub from a new ISP even if the mailing address is the same.

Occasionally, you may be able to fix it by way of the password recovery 
facility, which will send you a one time pad access to change the pw, 
which may update that and allow you to unsub.

In extremis, write a procmail recipe to send it to /dev/null.
