One problem with that theory. If you view the HTML message as plain
text, the unsub rubric IS there, so it has obviously been added. Why it
doesn't show with HTML rendering I'll leave to more learned people to
puzzle out.
The HTML and text versions are separate parts of a multi-part MIME

part, as other parts may be images or other attachments. It should in
theory be possible for the list software to work its way though
multipart/mixed and multipart/alternative content types, working out
which to add the info to, but that's not quite so simple...
I suspect in general impossible.
However, an over-clever MUA just /might/ take the signature from the
plain text and tag it onto on the html. But that's just a shot in the
dark.
I wonder if a message sent as HTML-only (without a plain text equivalent
part) would have the unsubscribe info added...?
I'm not sure TB can send html-only emails, or I'd give it a whirl.
(And I see your MUA, Mark, isn't plain sailing either :-) )
SeaMonkey has an option for "Rich Text (HTML) Only" format which I'm
sure I selected just now, but the copy in my sent folder was plain-text
only so I suspect finger trouble. I've just checked it with several
emails to myself, and all have come out as HTML only. This one
definitely has HTML-only selected, so if it comes out as plain text
again there must be something else going on...
Well that one worked, as did Larry's I see, and neither have had the
unsubscribe info added on. I guess it must only be added to the
text/plain part, if one exists.

This is a plain text attachment, to see if the unsubscribe info gets added to
all text/plain parts or only the first...
