 As this pops up regularly on various mailing lists I suspect there is MUA 
software out there that does not properly present this information to the 
user.  I would imagine all GUI MUAs to present a big <Unsubscribe> button 
whenever this header is seen, but I highly suspect this is not the case.  
I guess we need to live with someone unexperienced getting lost from time 
to time.

 NB in the presence of one or more list management headers my TUI MUA 
presents a selectable hyperlink at the bottom of the message with actions 
available according to the headers, but this is old school software.  If 
someone reads e-mail say with their mobile phone, I imagine they may not 
have such fancy features available.

 FWIW,
