Why is it that this list has a much higher percentage of people who have
ill-configured auto-responders that reply with their "Out of Office"?
This happens only rarely on any other list, but just about any time I
post to WebAIM, I get at least two of them from someone....
a) Your autoresponder should not respond to a mailing list ... or any
other "daemon" generated message (you'd hate it, and your administrator
would hate it even more, if your auto-responder and someone else's
auto-responder getting into a mail-loop war....Which brings me to my
second point...
b) Your autoresponder should not respond to the same address more than
once (especially on the same day)
