Yes, check the headers in any recent e-mail from the list. In particular:

     List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:dwm+unsubscribe_AT_suckless.org>
     List-Subscribe: <mailto:dwm+subscribe_AT_suckless.org>
     List-Help: <mailto:dwm+help_AT_suckless.org>

Based on the help file one receives by sending an e-mail to:

     dwm+help_AT_suckless.org

it looks like to switch to nomail one had to unsubscribe and subscribe to
the nomail version of the mailing list, by sending an e-mail to:

     dwm+unsubscribe_AT_suckless.org

to unsubscribe then sending an e-mail to:

     dwm+subscribe-nomail_AT_suckless.org

to switch to nomail. That's one feature of mlmmj I don't really care for.
It seems like one should be able to switch to/from nomail without
unsubscribing and resubscribing. On the other hand, I love being able to
retrieve list archives via e-mail. I seriously considered mlmmj for the
mailing lists I run for a local canine agility group, but ended up going
with Ecartis instead.
