Comment (by r-a-y):

 There's been some discussion about this feature recently in Slack:
 https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/buddypress/p1486587538003859

 To summarize:

 - GMail (web client) will only show the "Unsubscribe" link for reputable
 senders.  The exact algorithm is not quite known, but if you're using a
 well-known email provider such as SparkPost, SendGrid, etc. that signs
 emails with DKIM, this should make things easier.  Some more info can be
 found [http://blog.mailchimp.com/gmails-new-unsubscribe-link-and-feedback-
 loop/ here].
 - Outlook.com and Apple iOS Mail 10 does not support HTTP URLs for the
 `List-Subscribe` header (which is what we are using), so the "Unsubscribe"
 link will not show up in these clients.
