Heh.  This is a list for people who work at ISPs.  In the 5 years I've been 
administrating this list we have had a problem with an autoresponder maybe 
once a year.  For the most part, ISP folks just don't take vacation, and 
when they do take a vacation they usually read their email daily while on 
vacation.  For those who take a vacation and use autoresponders, most 
people are very clueful about how they configure them.
