+1 to this. In fact +10 :-)

Yes, instead of "To unsubscribe:" it could say "List options:" or some
such. I would propose something like:

        -- 
        Fedora mailing list: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx
        Please read the Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
        Options: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
        
        
poc

-- 
fedora-list mailing list
fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx
To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
