Auto replies

Hi all,

Actually, I would LOVE to find a way to prevent my "out of office" message
being sent to the two list servers I belong to.  Does anyone know how to
prevent Outlook (our standard) from sending auto-reply messages to specific
people or groups?  I have looked at every "Rules Wizard" option I can think
of and have found nothing.

Matt (trying to be a good list citizen)

It looks like the new software does what I thought it would.  It uses the
"Precedence: bulk" header.

I suspect that a big part of the autoreplies could be from badly behaving
autoreply programs, but perhaps that is a misconception on my part.  We
shall see... :)
