In Pegasus (Win98... sorry) I currently get this on the first line
of each message:

[ Double-click this line for list subscription options ] 

This is triggered by the headers of the message... double-clicking
it does bring up a choice of "Get Info" or "Subscribe" or
"Unsubscribe."  Selecting Unsubscribe produces a blank e-mail 
sent
to: ####@####.####

Perhaps if more e-mail clients handled these particular headers
better....   ;-)
