Hi
I have read the other post in this forum that refers to this question but I don't understand the answer.

I want to ensure that anyone who says they don't want email from my organisation does not ever get another email regardless of what groups they may be in.

I use this this:

If you do not wish to be contacted please <a href="{action.optOutUrl}">Unsubscribe</a> <br/> {domain.address}

Is that the correct mechanism?

Thanks
Caroline

Yes, OptOut is basically the contact saying don't ever contact me again.

Unsubscribe is ONLY unsubscribing from that particular Mailing Group.

I would personally change your code to the following to make it clear what they are doing:

If you do not wish to be contacted please <a href="{action.optOutUrl}">Opt out of ALL communication from us</a> <br/> {domain.address}
