How to add a Join Our Mailing List button to emails

Anyone know how to add a one-click button to an email that will add a current customer to the website mailing list? I want to include it in the New Order Reciept email template. Something like NetFlix emails that allow the customer to rate the quality of a recently viewed movie. I'm mostly interrested in the one-click aspect, so even if the site administrator has to enter the email at the website by hand, it's okay.

There's no way out-of-the-box to do that, but it would certainly be doable via a simple customization. |

Is anyone out there interested in developing this for me? Not sure what it might cost.

Thinking outloud for you. Wondering if the customization could be something as seemingly simple as sending the user to the myaccount_mailinglist.aspx page and within the url a query string auto-subscribes the user (has to be logged in...)
so the link would be something like .aspx?customerid=XXXXXXXXX&subscribe=1
But..... I'm a netflix user as well, having to login after those review emails are sent actually stops me from doing anything though. I'm that lazy...lol...
So perhaps a non-login required landing page for the subscription would be more effective?
Maybe I'm a unique snowflake on the "stopping because I have to login" behavior though. |

You might want to consider a follow up confirmation opt-in in case the emails are forwarded to another one of the shopper's email addresses, or to a spouse / someone else who inadvertently clicks the sign up link...just to stay on everyone's white lists |
