Confusing message from Mozilla Connect when unsubscribing from emails

I don't like being emailed about updates to stuff I posted, so when setting up my Mozilla Connect account, I thought I disabled email updates. I must have missed something, because I still got emails. So I figure, no problem, I'll just click the unsubscribe button at the bottom of the email, and that'll be the end of that. As far as I can tell, this did indeed work, with no negative side effects, except for one weird detail. When you unsubscribe, the success message reads:

"Success! We removed your email address from your account. We apologize for any inconvenience."

This is almost certainly just a case of poor wording, but when I unsubscribe from a mailing list, I don't want my email address to be removed from my own account! It makes it sound like it's messed up the account itself somehow! Please update this message to be worded less alarmingly.
