I would not use the unsubscribe button for spam messages. But sometimes I will use it for companies that I have done business with in the past. Some of these companies will flood you with several emails every day. I have never understood if just clicking on a link in an email can actually compromise your computer. If so, why do financial companies, like banks, insurance companies, and investment companies, continue to send emails to you with a link to click on? Many companies also do this to ask you to do a survey. Maybe someone can answer the question:
"Can a single click on an email link create a security issue, as long as you don't do anything else?"
