We do want to expose this url. There is a field in general settings to set "Unsubscribe confirmation url". However this just adds a redirect and doesn't mask our url. What options do i have?
You're right the setting for "Unsubscribe confirmation url" is only a redirect after the unsubscription to be able to avoid the generic confirmation-message.
At the moment there is no way to "force" the root domain, the domain used for the backoffice will be used to construct the url's that is generated. This goes for everything from links to to media-files etc. in the content of the newsletter.
I would agree that it could be a good idea to move this in to some part that is swappable so that this can be configured if needed.
We do work on the package and I'll add this as a feature in the backlog for upcoming releases.
Ok, thanks for the clarification. Yeah, having this configurable would be useful. I've added a form where users can unsubscribe. In theory a user could unsubscribe anyone's email address. I've noticed in the templates you have a token [content]. Is there perhaps another token i use to validate the user.
FYI we've got around this by creating a simple /newsletters/ page in Umbraco which lists the various subscriptions the user is subscribed to based on the supplied QueryString parameter.
Works quite well and is fairly simple if you need pointers let me know.

Hi Tim!
Great news! I would love to see what you've done, maybe we can include it in the package in the future or in the NewsetterStudioContrib-project.

Could you send me over email? markus [at sign goes here] enkelmedia.se.

Hi!
This token is basically the email-address encoded.
I've added this "base url"-thing to the backlog - it's quite a task but we will look at it during the upcoming sprints.
