+1 always a good idea

Do not click links or open attachments unless you can confirm the sender and know the content is safe. Hey everyone, TL;DR; I would like to ask for a lazy consensus of adding a footer to our users@ list explaining how to unsubscribe. There were quite a few users that got confused about unsubscribing from users@ list. I think there are quite a few reasons why we should inform the users how they could unsubscribe, because many of them do not even remember how they subscribed. I opened https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-24249 and during the discussion it turned out that "standard" "list-unsubscribe" header is not effective in many cases (for example gmail users do not see an easy unsubscribe option because apache.org mailing lists apparently do not have proven history of unsubscribing) and seems the best way to deal with it is to add explicit information in the footer. We can simply add this standard footer to our list posts: --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <#l#>-unsubscribe@<#h#> For additional commands, e-mail: <#l#>-help@<#h#> I am not a big fan of email footers but I think it would be nice if we add it for users@ list at least. The dev@ subscribers are much more "aware" and will likely find a way. No need to respond to it unless you would like to argue against it. I will let the consensus question run for 72 hours + 1 day for the weekend (tilI Tuesday 7th of March 8 am CET). J. Additional info: some extra information that came out during the discussion: There are some regulations and expectations for the unsubscribe button: https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/resources/can-spam-act-compliance-guide-business "Tell recipients how to opt out of receiving future email from you. Your message must include a clear and conspicuous explanation of how the recipient can opt out of getting email from you in the future. Craft the notice in a way that’s easy for an ordinary person to recognize, read, and understand." J,
