Why do so many supposedly clueful people have their vacation message system respond to mailing list email?
Among the ones I found when I looked into the question with some rigor a few years ago were that mailing list traffic often no longer has a useful "precedence" value that was used to screen such mail.
Surely regardless of the presence of precedence you would never autoreply to an email that wasnt addressed to you personally? Steve
