What is the point of "hiding" the unsubscribe address in the header?

I think it is because the unsubscribe address is 'personalized' (has ones own e-mail address within the link). But you'll not get me to argue with the thought that there has to be a better way ;-)
It is not "personalized" at all.

you can use any email address to post to the list, any fake From: address is shown to the list, while hiding your secret subscribed email address to send (the envelope sender)... <snip>
As I clearly stated, and as you have reiterated from the portion of your post that I have retained above, it has ones own email address within the link. You may not wish to use the word 'personalized' to describe this characteristic, but I (and I venture to say, 'others') would think this an apt description. -- Tony Alfrey tonyalfrey@earthlink.net "I'd Rather Be Sailing"
