Unsubscribe test

Brief description

This test checks whether an 'unsubscribe' link that recipients can use to unsubscribe from the list is present in the mailing. An unsubscribe link is required by law. You can also specify that the unsubscribe test should check whether a list-unsubscribe header is set.

Prerequisites

The unsubscribe test will only be performed if performance of the unsubscribe test is activated in the list properties (Setting up the properties of mailing lists).

The unsubscribe test does not appear in the quality test of the following subscription and unsubscription emails:

Subscription: Timeout emails
Subscription: Confirmation emails
Unsubscription: Confirmation emails
Unsubscription: Farewell emails

The unsubscribe test appears in the quality test for all other emails.

Possible test results

green = Unsubscribe link exists
orange = No unsubscribe link of the "unsubscribe" type exists
