It just might. But will it stop stupid auto responders?

Perhaps they can add a X-I-am-a-braindead-autoresponder header to those
messages? Then we can just filter them out and be done with them on
mailinglists.

Maybe we should write up a RFC to make it mandatory for any
autoresponder. (BTW: anyone familiar with formatting a RFC style text?)
