Mautic 7.x now shows a confirmation page where recipients enter their email address before an unsubscribe or resubscribe link executes, and no longer embeds the email address in the first-click URL (mautic/mautic PR #16870). Document this in the Unsubscribing section of emails.rst, including legacy-link behavior, and cross-reference it from the Preference Center page.

Mautic 7.x hardens the public unsubscribe and resubscribe flows against leaked email links. The
{unsubscribe_url},{unsubscribe_text}, and{resubscribe_url}tokens now resolve to a validation page: when a Contact clicks the link, they land on a 'Confirm your email address' page and must enter the email address the message was sent to before the unsubscribe or resubscribe completes. The Contact's email address is no longer embedded in the first-click URL, which protects against leaked or forwarded links.This updates the 'Unsubscribing' section of
docs/channels/emails.rstto document the new confirmation workflow, the mismatch error, and how links from older Mautic versions now behave (redirect to the confirmation page when a send record exists, otherwise a 'Record not found.' message for unsubscribe or a page-not-found error for resubscribe). It also adds a cross-reference from the Preference Center page so readers know the confirmation step precedes the Preference Center.Files touched: docs/channels/emails.rst, docs/contacts/preference_center.rst.
