Does the opt out URL work with Message Templates?

I'm testing this and finding that it's not.

I have included this as a link in an email that's supposed to be the first email people get from our system:

{action.optOutUrl}

I'm not sure where it links to because it seems to provide a link to reopen the web-based email.

Is it supposed to work in the Message Templates defined in civicrm/admin/messageTemplates?selectedChild=user&reset=1 ?

Kinda urgent - any advice appreciated!!

Yes, but only when used in CiviMail

Thanks, it was explained to me that it is really an 'opt out of bulk mailings' link so if it's not sent with a bulk mailing it won't work.

I made an opt-out profile by listing only the 'No bulk emails' checkbox.
