This should get you on your way - pipe the message into:
formail -cxlist-unsubscribe: | sed 's/.*<mailto:\([^>]*\).*/\1/'
It'd also be possible to detect whether a message is coming from
a ezmlm- or majordomo-driven list by looking at which headers get
generate, and automatically send the right majordomo command.
