RE: [Meta] Unsubscribe / help footer at the bottom of messages to this list.
Furthermore, I suggest having a footer with unsubscription / help information in addition to the header because the header may not be visible, not all E- mail clients may display it, and people may otherwise be unaware of it. I have often seen some unsubscribe messages sent to mailing lists and putting the ubsubscription information in the footer greatly reduces that. I see what you mean, but, well, I personally would vote no to this. I'm really tired of all that mailing lists which can't stay from attaching their own banners and general hints at the message tail. After all, the SA users list is not for the faint of heart and people (like you do, in example) should at least know how to unsubscribe from an ezmlm-managed list... Giampaolo so it all comes back to PEBKAC. I know how to unsubscribe - that's not the problem.

I fully agree. not mentioning breakage of e.g. DKIM. btw, not to be off-topic at least once, can SA comply with this? Not breaking DKIM signature? Yes, on both accounts: - the users@spamassassin.apache.org mailing list does not break signatures (thankfully it does not modify Subject or add footers/signatures); - DKIM signatures in messages passed through SpamAssassin are normally not invalidated, unless one configures SA to modify Subject or to add a report to the body of a message.

SORBS is definitely hosed today
Not sure what is happening but they appear to be down and when they are up they have a lot of people blacklists that shouldn't be. I noticed that this list uses sorbs and the admins might want to disable it. I don't know what's happening but I wish them the best.

Please tell me I am not the only one to see the irony. I can't even remember the last time I've seen an unsub request straight to this list. I do, however, frequently see them on some lists despite adding such a footer. It's not a matter of missing information forced onto each and any post.

The SORBS problem explained
There's a good article just popped up on The Register about the SORBS problem. It mostly seems to have come from a conversation with Michelle Sullivan. It gives details of what happened and why and points out that the DOS attack happened to coincide with the problem but didn't cause it. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/10/07/sorbs_cockup/ Martin

And *really* not necessary with this list and its audience, as history shows. With other lists populated by non tech-savvy folks, it won't work either. You lost your audience by referring to a header. You would not assume people unable to comprehend a verbose how to unsub disclaimer, and still manage to send it straight to the list, to grok that, would you? Yes, I have seen helpful replies along the lines of the next paragraph tells you how to unsub. The full sender's text.
