I think we used to have this and removed them because it was breaking the encryption signature on messages or something which meant they were very likely to be treated as spam?Not saying we can’t put it back on, but it was removed for good reasons from what I recall.On Jan 22, 2024, at 12:19 PM, Brandon Williams <dri...@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi all,
I'd like to propose appending the following two footers to messages sent to the user@ and dev@ lists. The proposed postscript including line breaks is between the "XXXXX" blocks below.
User List Footer:
XXXXX
---
Unsubscribe: Send a blank email to user-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org. Do not reply to this message.
Cassandra Community: Follow other mailing lists or join us in Slack: https://cassandra.apache.org/_/community.html
XXXXX
Dev List Footer:
XXXXX
---
Unsubscribe: Send a blank email to dev-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org. Do not reply to this message.
Cassandra Community: Follow other mailing lists or join us in Slack: https://cassandra.apache.org/_/community.html
XXXXX
Offering this proposal for three reasons:
– Many users are sending "Unsubscribe" messages to the full mailing list which prompts others to wish to unsubscribe – a negative cascade that affects the size of our user community.
– Many users don't know where to go to figure out how to unsubscribe, especially if they'd joined many years ago.
– Nearly all mailing lists provide a one-click mechanism for unsubscribing or built-in mail client integration to do so via message headers. Including compact instructions on how to leave is valuable to subscribers.
#asfinfra indicates that such footers can be appended given project consensus and an INFRA- ticket: https://the-asf.slack.com/archives/CBX4TSBQ8/p1705939868631079
If we reach consensus on adding a message footer, I'll file an INFRA ticket with a link to this thread.
Thanks,
– Scott
