Don’t they have a list unsubscribe header in the emails themselves? That’s effectively a requirement for senders of their size since Feb 2024.

I see this in the headers. But there was no option in the MacOS Mail client to unsubscribe. Only the Unsubscribe link in the body of the email.

The functionality for mail clients to offer an "unsubscribe" button is dependent on there being a "List-Unsubscribe" header in the e-mail with a URL:

* https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8058

* https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2369#section-3.2

If the sender does not put one in then that's hardly the mail client's fault.

MacOS should have list unsub support from what I can see: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mail/mlhld3405766/mac
