Hi!

I already sent this message last night, but just noticed that it contains
the "no-no" word u-n-s-u-b-s-c-r-i-b-e.  So, here it goes again....

Hi!

In each mail sent from Sympa, there are these headerlines:

List-Help: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=help>
List-Su*****be: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=su*****be%20newbie-de>
List-Un***scri*e: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=un***scri*e%20newbie-de>
List-Post: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
List-Owner: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

This by itself is quite good, but I don't suspect that it helps at all. 
People using a GUI MUA, ie. people able to click on these "URLs" will
most probably not see those header lines, as those programs often hide
details from the user.  So for those people this doesn't help as they simply
don't see it.  

On the other hand, there are the people with text MUAs like mutt.  Those are
often more configurable than GUI progs and they often tend to display more
details by default.  So those kinda people see these lines but are of course
unable to click on them.  These lines are basically a nuissance as they are
totally useless.

Could these lines be changed to something more useful, which is easier to
copy to the clipboard and insert later on, like:

List-Subscribe: Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this subject: su*****be newbie-de 
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=su******be%20newbie-de>

This sould of course all be on the same line :]  People who read these lines
are still able to make use of it, it is a lot easier to read, easier to copy
to the clipboard and also directly clickable.

Thanks.

PS: I replaced the "no-no" words with stars, but I hope that you'll still
understand what I'm talking about...
