Note: even "once per visit" is still not enough. This is still causing users to
receive undesired emails from a mailing list that they have not opted in
actively. MediaWiki should not use the "opt out" procedure (and anyway your fix
still does not even implement the "opt out" procedure correctly, ad the emails
do not even include any "unsubscribe" link).

As the new feature is still not mandatory (coming from a community decision),
there's absolutely no reason for allowing it to be enabled by default (instead
consider informing users about the new functionality, using Global Site Notices
that will first link to a page explaining to users how they can enable/disable
it and what will be the impact). So change it immediately so that users will
use active "opt in" rather than a bogous "opt out" which was explained nowhere.
