All Plain Text and HTML messages sent by Modular Mailer must contain an option for the customer to opt-out of the store's mailing list. By opting out, the customer will no longer receive any emails generated by the Modular Mailer module. To add an unsubscribe link, use the {URL-EMAIL-UNSUBSCRIBE} QuickCode Tag. When the email is created, this QuickCode Tag will be translated to the URL of the store's unsubscribe page.

tip: modular mailer can add the link for you

If the {URL-EMAIL-UNSUBSCRIBE} QuickCode Tag is not present in an email template, when Modular Mailer generates an email that uses that template, an unsubscribe link will automatically be appended to the end of the email.
