Jim,

  you need to do a little trick with the cmdutils in The Terminal:

cd /usr/local/post.office/cmdutils

../listsubscribers Post_Office - | ./unsubscribe -q -f -i - Post_Office
immediate          

That should all be on one line. replace Post_Office with your list name.
you should see this name in the Descriptive Information section of the list
administration.

the -q does it w/o notifying users.
