I'll teach you a weird trick:

Have a look into the mail headers which come with *each* of the
mails you receive from the list. Among them, there is

  List-Unsubscribe: <https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/options/help-gnu-emacs>,
        <mailto:help-gnu-emacs-request@gnu.org?subject=unsubscribe>

This is telling you to *either* go to

  https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/options/help-gnu-emacs

with your browser and follow the instructions there *or* to send a
mail to

  help-gnu-emacs-request@gnu.org

with the subject "unsubscribe" (without the quotes).

In both cases, you'll receive a confirmation mail (the mailing list
software has to double-check that you are in control of the address
you want to unsubscribe).

In any case, you can't unsubscribe by sending a mail to *all the
other subscribers*. At most, you incommodate a couple of hundreds
of people.

Cheers
