No, it isn't. Contrary to mailing list best practices, NANOG unsubscribe information is stubbornly stashed in the email headers ----------------------------------------------
That's a feature. Not a bug. :-)
Actually, it's RFC 2369 :)
---------------------------------------------------- On the other hand, the very first guideline at http://www.mail-abuse.com/an_listmgntgdlines.html is: "Mailing list administrators must provide [...] clear and effective instructions for unsubscribing from a mailing list." Hidden in the headers is rather less than clear or effective. ---------------------------------------------------- On the many other mailing lists I'm on folks don't even read it when it's at the bottom of the email. Having it at the bottom of every email is irritating and does not solve the problem of folks sending in the emails to the list for unsubscription. scott
