I definitely want "Unsubscribe" link in email notification

I want it back, as it was in ver. 2.x
Going through user control panel to do it is a major pain.

It's not in 2.x either.

Ooops, must be some other type of board.
It'd be nice to have a feature like that.

Seconded

Thirded. I'm surprised this isn't already in there. As much as I like the extra ad revenue from people clicking back to the forum to unsubscribe, I'd rather not annoy people.

Also, one would think that an unsubscribe link would be required under the CANSPAM act. But I'm not a lawyer.

*sign*

A unsubscribe link would be great, also for the newsletter system!

Quite a few people requested this before. I don't know what's the holdup. :unsure:

+1 I've been asking for this since before v2. :(

I fifth or sixth it. Whatever number we are on.. lol

I operate in NZ and technically I am supposed to have one by law, as required in their new anti spam regulations.
So please put me down for this feature too.

I would also like this feature! This is quite critical :)

Being that a forum is not a mailing list I don't think that this is correct.

As for the topic itself I believe you can (at least until it's implemented as standard) add it manually into the email template. Also, to make this even clearer, I don't believe there is a way to unsubscribe via a link. You can link a member to the notifications tab in the profile and they can manually turn off their notifications.

If you need help with this I suggest a post in Peer to Peer. ;)

Of course, there is. vBulletin has that option.

IPB is not vBulletin.

Hmmm....I guess, it's a matter of adding a piece of code?

IPB has the potential to be the best software on earth. We are just suggesting some improvements that will get them there!! :)

So as we were saying, ....an unsuscribe link in forum generated emails would be terrific.

Thank you.

:)

Well said :)

Most other sites that send me mail also include the ability to unsubscribe from such notices within that same email via a clickable link. Seems silly that it is not done here. I also would like to see this changed for the future.
