Topic: Need for double opt in and unsubscribe without confirmation

I use iRedAdmin-Pro and am very satisfied with the entire package. Compliment!

However, I have a legal problem with the mailing lists:

Each mailing list can be configured whether a subscription must be confirmed or not. This includes subscribe AND unsubscribe.

Confirmation is legally necessary for a subscription (double opt-in). No confirmation is legally a must for an unsubscribe.

A solution would be a separate configuration:
- Confirmation subscribe
- Confirmation unsubscribe

Is there a work around?

Seems the confirmation of unsubscribe is forced by mlmmj and not configurable.

If "Disable subscription confirm" is activated for a list, no confirmation is needed to unsubscribe. I checked this severel times.

"Disable subscription confirm" is the "nosubconfirm" parameter.
According to mlmmj, it's used to control confirmation of subscription, not unsubscribe. sad
