The footer has links, but it doesn't say 'Unsubscribe or change options'. I agree that the info is there on the welcome letter, but how many people save it? This is not just a centos problem - all lists seem to suffer from it. I think just adding that phrase into the footer would help - though again it seems human nature to skip over footers, particularly as we are used to seeing sigs that have no interest to us. Anne Anne
