Regular mailing lists, where you purposely subscribe by yourself, and
marketing mass-mailing, where you are usually subscribed "by the way", eg. 
when registering on some website, are two quite different things.

The latter usually - at least if they are legitimate ones - have
personalized unsubscribe links, when you click that link the software
serving the webpage already knows which address do you want to unsubscribe.
