Create either an appexchange package or a "Web-to-Lead" style install process for the following idea:
It would be really great if: Salesforce.com allowed an admin user to easily install or generate HTML for, a web-based solution that allows for Contacts to unsubscribe themselves from your contact list; (i.e. Contact records in SFDC)
The idea here would be that ultimately a link would be used in the footer of all outbound mass-emails to Contacts, to allow them to unsubscribe or in other words activate the "Email-Opt Out" or other custom checkbox within the Salesforce.com records that correspond to the contacts.
This is probably not exactly straightforward but could imagine this could at least be used by leveraging the Web-To-Lead. This would be more of a Web-To-Existing-Contact-Opt Out.
This solution can be done currently through some HTML lifting and integration work...it would be nice if SFDC could find a way to "Salesforce-it" or at minimum provide for the creation of HTML code that can be then sent to internal IT folks to run with.

This would be useful for Leads too so that we don't continually 'spam' potential customers. |
