3 | This plugin gives the user a menu of mailinglist options such as |
4 | (un)subscribe, help and archives when viewing messages from compliant |
5 | mailinglists. |

8 | Description |
9 | =========== |
10 | |
11 | The plugin is an implementation of RFC 2369, "The Use of URLs as Meta-Syntax |
12 | for Core Mail List Commands and their Transport through Message Header Fields", |
13 | to be found at ftp://nis.nsf.net/internet/documents/rfc/rfc2369.txt. |
14 | |
15 | Compliant mailinglistservers add extra headers with each message they send out |
16 | with information about how to (un)subscribe, get help or contact the list |
17 | owner. This can either be a web location or an emailaddress. In the latter |
18 | case, one needs to send an email to that address in order to complete an action |
19 | like subscribing. |
20 | |
21 | The information in these headers is used to generate an extra menuline on |
22 | messages containing one or more of these headers to help users taking advantage |
23 | of the features offered. |
