CAVEAT: This is NOT intended to start up another "Reply To" flamewar.
I'm all out of marshmallows.
I've noticed in mailing lists that sometimes vacation messages, bounces
of this sort get ignored by the list. Other times, they get posted back
to the list, which can be real fun. I always assumed this was an error
in the mail client setting / mangling the X-precedence incorrectly, but
never really worried about it much since most of the lists I manage are
don't allow users to post, or are moderated.
In a list where replies go back to the list, how does one prevent a mail
loop in such a circumstance?
Thanks,
Josh
