The other problem is it requires putting the user's list password in the URL which may expose the password and allow all sorts of changes to the user's options in addition to unsubscribe. >I may go this route, as I presume a "goodbye" mail goes out, so if the >person was inadvertently unsubsubscribed, they will know about it and be >able to correct the situation... Yes, a goodbye mail does go out, but consider that users will reply to posts (assuming this is a discussion list) without removing the footer and their passwords will be exposed to the entire list plus archive. It /might/ be workable on an announcement list. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
