Hello,
I am trying to impliment the List-Unsubscribe feature for my news
letter mailings. When I click mark the message as spam, I dont see the
popup offering to let the user unsubscribe as well.
Here is the header I'm trying to use:

List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:bounce
+bnVsbDoxOjUxNzoz=gmai...@ambitrevolution.com>, <http://
joshcope.ambitrevolution.com/r/bnVsbDoxOjUxNzp1>


Does this look correct? If so, any idea why it's not working as
expected?

Thanks,
Jason

I think that function depends more on the list-id header than something in the text.

I'm comparing my email to one from zazzle.com, their email
list-unsubscribe works.
They do not have a list-id header. The docs say nothing about list-id either.

I dont see anything there.

Thanks,

They do say to make sure your unsubscribe should be a header, you didn't indicate that it was originally (though you didn't say it wasn't).

The one for this list has the http first, and the mailto: second.  Perhaps order is important.
