Also note that you can enable and turn on personalization without "full
personalization" which will make all the necessary user information
available to build an unsubscribe link in the footer without munging
the To: header. However, all the personalization options only work for
individual messages, not for digests.

Assuming that when they follow the mailto link, the address they reply
from is the subscribed address. This may not be the case, especially
if the user has subscribed a "forwarding" address to the list and has
forgotten that fact.
