Hope this helps! 'Tis true, you'l need postmaster privileges, but you'l also need NAS privs as well. This is true especially if some of your local users are subscribed to lists on other hosts. Those hosts will recognize only their own local postmaster, which is why you need to send the unsub request from a NAD authorised account.
