Tail-gating on this so I mention it somewhere at least. One problem that I have noticed, and I don't know how systematic it is, is that when a post uses HTML formatting, the list robot may not provide the trailer in a form that actually has it be visible to a recipient.
This has led, in the past, to users being dissed by other users for not paying attention to footers that, in fact, they don't see. (It's one of those "works for me" disconnects.) One action I can take is to request that list moderators on projects I support provide the level of civility exhibited by Mark Thomas and simply honor unsubscribe requests and confirm it to the list. I will do that too. I am acting on the practice now. What the robot/archiver does is beyond me. - Dennis > -----Original Message----- > From: Pierre Smits [mailto:pierre.sm...@gmail.com] > Sent: Monday, June 13, 2016 07:28 > To: dev@community.apache.org > Subject: Re: Unsubscribe trailers > > Hi Mark. > > Easy fix for a returning nuisance. > > Kudos! > > Best regards, > > Pierre Smits > > ORRTIZ.COM <http://www.orrtiz.com> > OFBiz based solutions & services > > OFBiz Extensions Marketplace > http://oem.ofbizci.net/oci-2/ > > On Mon, Jun 13, 2016 at 4:25 PM, Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> wrote: > > > On 13/06/2016 15:20, Richard Eckart de Castilho wrote: > > > That should help many people and avoid these annoying > > > "please unsubscribe" messages. > > > > > > How about turning these footers on for all mailing lists ASF-wide? > > > Or did you actually do that? ;) > > > > I could do that.
