Here's the short and sweet of it, for the unsubscribe process:

http://dadamailproject
com/d/features-unsubscription_system
pod
html

Part of the simplification of things was that there's only one unsubscription tag, and it's required that it be used If it's not found, it'll be placed in your message for you It's supposed to be annoyingly on top, so you'll do something about it My guess is that the correct unsubscription tag just isn't present You'll notice that it's not placed on top of the discussion messages, for this mailing list?

This is also covered in the FAQ:

http://dadamailproject com/d/FAQ-general pod html#unsubscription_links_are_placed_on_top_of_my_mailing_list_messages__why

This has been the behavior of the app for years now The only difference is that a few different unsubscription links were allowed in past revisions, now only one specific one can be used That's about it

Legitimate mailing lists have legitimate unsubscribe mechanisms (amongst other things), and I've taken a lot of time to make Dada Mail's unsubscription system first class It's a huge priority There's no, "don't use the unsubscription system" mode in Dada Mail Are there cases where it's not needed? Yeah, I can clearly see that there are Does Dada Mail cater to those cases? No, it doesn't

Please, if you'd like, open up the discussion to how one could run something I'll label a, "private" mailing list, that doesn't follow all the rules of a, "public" mailing list, but then tell me how I can offer this feature, without having it wide open to abuse, and/or having me somehow being the police force against this abuse That's the problem I don't have a solution to, that's what I asked for help on, and that's what remains unsolved I get that, "But you can trust ME" argument, but how can I trust people that don't come up to me, personally?
