For those that don't bother to read the entire thread the ONLY way it seems to unsubscribe is via this:

How abouts making a standalone option to unsubscribe purely from the mailing list else this might be somewhat annoying to both users and administrators on the site. As this really would be a lot better, as some sites may not allow users to turn off that option yet that would also mean users wouldn't stop getting the email even if they didn't want it anymore thus causing people to get annoyed and maybe leave.

Also is it possible to re-arrange the layout of the email it sends? EG: Put Latest Threads at top, or something?

[Delfi_r]

Anyone knows an actively maintained plugin that does the same?

A simple solution I came up with for my weekly newsletter was I created an additional user group called weekly newsletter. I subscribed all my members to it as an additional user group. I added this link http://www.guesswho.com/forum/profil...editusergroups to the bottom of the newsletter. When they click it, it takes them to their permission groups so they can leave the group.
When I schedule a newsletter I just pull from the weekly newsletter group only each time.

I run the pro version of this mod and there is no way of unsubscribing without un-ticking email from admin either. Something I don't like about it!
This is Mary's old mod and it use to have an unsubscribe feature but it was taken out.

Now I'm going to answer your question, NO I do not know where you can find the pro version these days. The authors site has been closed for all I know.

:I see the author is still around he was online this month.
