This is the same message/complaint I had when I sent in my message
with a subject of "damn autobots" to include a specific procmail
recipe for filing these messages off to a junk folder.  Now I just
send them to /dev/null.  I should just put a line in my sendmail
access file to reject all connections from fuse.net.  If you
didn't notice, every message to majordomo-users comes back with
the same autoreply (to the message poster), and each one has the
same headers including an X-Webmin-Autoreply: header.  The last
16 (that's all I have kept) were all from IP [66.161.160.102].

/etc/mail/access
66.161.160.102		REJECT
charsys.com		REJECT

or

/etc/procmailrc (global) $HOME/.procmailrc (user)
:0
* ^Received: from charsys
/dev/null

If you use the sendmail access method, don't forget to rebuild
your database with a "make all" or "makemap hash access < access".
Procmail recipes take affect immediately upon saving the file.
