It's almost like Mail Bombing...

Whenever I post to some groups I get hit with a barrage of "Out of the
office" and "Undeliverable Mail" replies to my personal mail box. This
is VERY annoying. Is there any way we can do something about this?

(...) people who set their broken vacation/autoresponders, they reply to mail that is marked as "bulk". Not much we can do about it, except perhaps have Suz unsubscribe them until they get back... :/ Dan (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) The groups gated to mailing lists are the worst for this.
