Well, so why doesn't one come up with a standard to encode the rules alltogether in the email-headers? We already got List-Id:, List-Post: so why shouldn't be there a List-Unsubscribed-Participants: that gets filled with the list of the people that listed "List-Subscribed: no" in their post? And once one is at this there could also be List-ContentType: with e.g. "text/plain:wrap=72,text/enriched,text/folded" so that linewraps are done according to the liking of the (hopefully) full list. Implementing this should be quite trivial for most MUA as they are open source and most non-opensourced would probaply not implement is anyway. Regards, Andre -- Andre Klärner
