Introduction

A new unsubscribe system is introduced for EPiServer Mail. The recipient can choose to unsubscribe only to a mailing of a certain category, for instance a weekly newsletter. The recipient will be excluded from all further mailings of this category. The recipient can also choose to unsubscribe to all mailings from this particular EPiServer Mail sender installation. The recipient will not receive any future mailings from this site. When the recipient clicks on the unsubscribe link in the mailing, the unsubscribe option page will be displayed. The recipient can then choose either option to unsubscribe.

Using Unsubscribe

Add the hyperlink (which copies the unsubscribeUrl value) and insert it into the HTML template of your choice.

<a href="§unsubscribeUrl§">Unsubscribe yourself</a>

 

§unsubscribeUrl§ will be substituted with information from the episervermail.config file (the unsubscribe attribute on the element editor). With the default configuration you will be directed to the example page which comes with installation.
