Re: Annoying auto-reply messages

As the victim of an overzealous IT department (witness my out-of-office
messages and clueless legal disclaimers that basically say nothing),
sometimes even those with a clue haven't a chance :-(

Ole,

In the old days, the Secretariat and, in particular, the IETF
Exec Dir, monitored the IETF list.  If someone sent a vacation
message to the list, or back to the Secretariat for
Secretariat-posted announcements (to either IETF@ or
ietf-announce@), the assumption was that the individual involved
lacked sufficient clues to be on an IETF list and the address
was quietly unsubscribed.

I guess that, as things have gotten more automated and
larger-scale, we have lost the ability to apply simple solutions.

Is there a way we could have these things filtered at the
