No! Time to install your own vacation program and then set up procmail...

*evil grin*

I must say that this list appears to have more clueless people on it than
any other list I've been on. This isn't the first person to set up a
vacation program without filtering list addresses. And as anyone who posts
to the list knows, there are a rather large number of people who
subscribed with broken email addresses or who let their mailboxes grow
beyond their sites quota. Somehow they always seem to be running some PC
LAN email package too...

Any theories as to why this is the case?
