The information IS in the headers, but many email programs don't show the full headers, extracting only the information that many people want (subject, TO:, CC:, etc). So if you aren't aware of it being hidden in the headers, you may not notice it.
I generally look at the footers, when present, to see how to unsubscribe. And many people don't even go that far. CentOS probably should add just a little more to their footers, such as a note that the link provided is also to unsubscribe.
It's easy to find when you know, but then we're not newbies, are we?

I've been on several different lists, on and off, so I am not a newbie here. And even then, unless I remembered, I probably wouldn't think of looking at the normally hidden headers.
Now when there is a footer added that says to unsubscribe, send a message to a specified address, it can be frustrating. But I guess it works, a list manager will probably remove the poster.
