Nothing says that the name that you give during the unsubscribe has to 
be accurate.  I'll commonly use First M. Last when I'm coerced into 
filling out such forms.

CAN-SPAM, CASL and several other Anti-Spam/Digital Marketing laws require
that the recipient only need to supply their email addresses to
unsubscribe. It may also be a requirement of their ESP, send a note to the
abuse desk for 1 unsolicited emails, 2 possible violations of local or
relevant legislation.

This process sounds like a direct violation of these laws (IANAL).

Regular mailing lists, where you purposely subscribe by yourself, and
marketing mass-mailing, where you are usually subscribed "by the way", eg. 
when registering on some website, are two quite different things.

The latter usually - at least if they are legitimate ones - have
personalized unsubscribe links, when you click that link the software
serving the webpage already knows which address do you want to unsubscribe.

They know the address they sent mail to, so they could easily generate a
personalized unsubscribe link that is connected with this particular address
and allows to unsubscribe just by clicking "Confirm" or something like this
on the page you get to via the link - as many legitimate newsletters already
do.


Hmm. This list has two unsubscribe links (https: and mailto:)
but neither is personalised.

Obviously it is done this way only to discourage people from unsubscribing.
They know the address they sent mail to, so they could easily generate a
personalized unsubscribe link that is connected with this particular address
and allows to unsubscribe just by clicking "Confirm" or something like this
on the page you get to via the link - as many legitimate newsletters already
do.

And this is made worse because there are plenty of cases where the
recipient won't know the exact address that the email was sent to.

People who 'gather' or require information on the opt-out pages, even if 
it is just the email address (you already sent to our email address) 
quickly get a bad reputation for their sending IPs.. if not end up on 
someone's blacklist.. don't do it.  Even if you are IBM (and you should
