In practice

It is unsubscribes ÷ delivered × 100. Watch for jumps, which tell you that a message, a segment or the frequency is wrong. A few unsubscribes are healthy: they are people who would otherwise complain.

Verification and sending

Honour every unsubscribe quickly and keep it on the suppression list.
