In my welcome-mail there is:

To unsubscribe send a mail to:
gentoo-user+unsubscribe@robin.gentoo.org

Maybe it would not increase traffic too much if there were such
a foot-note in every mail, automaticly included by ezmlm...

It is already in the headers, as is the standard for most list servers.

I think that is useless. The only thing you have to do for unsubscribing
is visit www.gentoo.org if you can't remember how, go to Lists and read,
that's not so hard.

There are lots of people unsubscribing and subscribing, only a few ones
write here for unsubscribing, we cannot do anything against that.

But I'm against adding that to EVERY MAIL posted, that would increase
size, and that's not a power reason for increasing size that way.

Rafael Fernández López.

An ironic comment from someone whose sig is longer than their message!

Let's not forget that top-posters don't scroll, so they would never see
the list footers.

Well my signature is there because I want it to be there. But I don't
want a comment from the list how I HAVE TO UNSUBSCRIBE. One thing is the
signature, and another thing is the information messages from mailing
system.

well, he has a point - he just missed to type it:
-signatures longer  than 4 lines are considered offensive
-double signatures are considered offensive
-triple signatures like yours are even worse.

So you are a three time offender with every mail you send...

and you can be sure:
 most people don't read them and a lot of people don't want to see them at 
all.

Erm... offensive? Maybe annoying but I can't think of anyone being 
offended.

Well, insofar as it suggests a certain arrogance to consider one's own
wisdom so deathless that you'd attach it to every mail, even if it's
longer than the actual content of your response, thereby "forcing" the
recipient to read it (or at least accept a larger mail in their mailbox
despite any possible bandwith or message size hit that might entail for
the recipient), and insofar as a suggestion of arrogance does tend to
offend people ("who do you think you are??!!"), then Volker has a valid
point, though it might be considered more in the "rather sensitive"
group of possible responses, rather than the "average Joe", or
"indifferent". But some people are, after all, rather sensitive, and
they can be that.

	Since my objective is not to argue about stupid things like this, I'll
strip out my sig. I wouldn't like to know that someone kill himself
because of my sig... so I'll get it out.

	If you felt offended by my sig, sorry. But from my point of view that
is *NOT* a reason for being felt offended.

	Answering to Bo Andresen, I personally like the second option. Filter
the messages that only contains "unsubscribe" is a good point. But
anyway, we receive one each long time, I mean, unsubscribing messages to
gentoo-user is not very high, so I don't feel *offended* by them. (Maybe
someone does... :p).

Would it not be possible to filter out mails that contain no subject field? 
And perhaps mails that contain only the word unsubscribe? It seems to me that 
would solve the problem...
