*chuckling*... well I suspect that the sad truth is that even if it is
one click on a URL in the footer of each and every email, to start the
unsubscribe process, there will still be someone that just can't quite
manage.

   After just reading the instructions on how to unsubscribe from this
list, it seems that it is made far too complex. Having
To unsubscribe click: users+unsubscribe@global.libreoffice.org
in the footer of emails. (Surprise to some, but some html emails will
not have this header and I don't know why.) Still we would still have to
remind some to reply to the confirmation email they were sent by the
mailing list.

Unsubscribing by clicking a link in an e-mail assumes the person receives HTML mail. Some force text only in which case the link won't work.

Others *send* text only so perhaps the Unsubscribe instruction doesn't get included (???) but, even if it does, it won't be clickable.

There have even been people who make great contributions to this list who complain about HTML e-mail.
