It would be interesting to know if the "list-unsubscribe" header in
the messages received by the digest subscribers is correct. If so,
this information is certainly known as the header is being

of things to consider when trying to help somebody. I knew about this
alternative, but there's no good way I can see for us as list members
to know which version of the list they're subscribed to (AFAIK, we
can't see their headers), and it's easy to forget about that. I'll
play around a bit more with this. Thanks!
You question got me curious ( a very dangerous condition). I normally
follow this list through gmane gut got curious so I subscribed to the
digest.
The digest headers include "list-unsubscribe:
<mailto:[email protected]>
The message body has, after a listing of the posts in the digest has
the following:
Administrivia:
To subscribe to the digest, e-mail:
[email protected]
To unsubscribe from the digest, e-mail:
[email protected]
To post to the list, e-mail:
[email protected]
Following this is the digest of all the emails. Thunderbird displays
them inline without any unsubscribe information at the end of each post.
Thanks for following up on that, Larry! I was curious too! :-) It seems
as if somebody who is subscribed to the digest is constantly reminded of
that, and how to unsubscribe, so ezmlm already provides what should be
sufficient differentiation for the recipient. So there's no point in
trying to change the trailer, but it's probably still worth reminding
somebody who is trying to unsubscribe that they need a different
unsubscribe address for the digest.
