[OT] unsubscribe stupid users with auto-replies

[Guenter Knauf <ef...@gmx.net>]

Hi all,
I think that it is only fair for all others that those on the list which are too stupid to setup a separate mail account are directly unsubscribed once the list gets auto-replies about their absence.

We have already enough spam, and its nearly impossible to filter those senseless mails.
If this continues it will not last long till those who really want to follow the list and post useful stuff will leave - but then the problem is also solved because:
no real posts = no stupid auto-replies = dead list.

thanks, Guenter.

Yes, but I've posted couple of mails to this and cc to apr-dev list. The
apr-dev have couple of minutes delay.
Perhaps the human span filter is involved there, or they need the high cpu
load to filter the messages :-).

Think that few simple rules could work in any of those 'out of office' cases
for every bayes filter.
Do we have one at all?

I think a bigger issue is why is the list software forwarding these?

I have subscribed to many other lists, and this seems to be the only one
that consistently has this problem. This is pretty amazing considering
the low number of subscribers.
