The way Imail list serv works is that you can append a footer message to every mail sent to that list,
That footer can contain a mailto: link to unsubscribe the recipient which will remove them from the mail list, not maintain a separate "do not send" list. The mailto would be like this: TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] ?message="unsubscribe list-name" or something like that. The recipient would receive an acknowledgement email advising of a successful unsubscribe. As far as trying to append that footer to ordinary email send via the server, I doubt that can be done, as that would be the duty of the email client originating the individual email. ====================================== We can get rid of spam on your domain! , Anti-spam solutions http://www.clickdoug.com/mailfilter.cfm For hosting solutions http://www.clickdoug.com ====================================== ----- Original Message ----- From: "Travis Rabe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, April 18, 2004 7:26 PM Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Feature query : Not aure about #2, but #1 one is a no. : : Travis : : > -----Original Message----- : > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] : > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of : > Yaffa Reception : > Sent: Sunday, April 18, 2004 4:27 PM : > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] : > Subject: [IMail Forum] Feature query : > : > : > Ok I sent this originally last Friday and only saw one reply : > which was : > an out of office one.
