Re: One-click unsubscribe

Alan,

I think a great idea would be for you investigate the feature yourself on a forked copy of Dada Mail by using github It's quite easy to fork off Dada Mail, make your changes and then ask for a pull I'm currently working on other parts of Dada Mail, so I can't really focus to much of myself on this part, but I'd be interested in what you find

For such a feature in such a sensitive part of Dada Mail - a part that would really need to work without bugs, it would be nice if you could include tests with your new feature, to make sure it's working correctly

I think if I could put some constraints on your feature, this would be my wishlist:

* Don't use the current pin system, since, as I've stated, I don't want it to be exposed in the mailing list messages - or really at all, since the mechanics of the confirmation URLs have, and will change, over time
 I think it is exposed as a artifact from versions previous
 

* I think you should really consider some of my comments about the idea, the security and usability parts of everything
 I'm really delighted someone with so much experience is interested in working with Dada Mail, but perhaps you are also going to have to not fight with what I'm just trying to point out as good ideas and not so good ideas
 

* TAP tests with the new feature

Also, please - this kind of stuff:

In closing, I would like to thank the other subscribers who thought it would be amusing to attempt to unsubscribe me from the list If anything, these childish and passive aggressive attempts to deter me have only resulted in strengthening my resolve to participate I look forward to chatting with you all as other traffic hits the list Cheers
