Hi Todd,
I received an Out-of-office reply from someone who is subscribed via
LUGNET's newsgroups per mail feature. This isn't really a problem but I
noticed that the header generated by LUGNET contains the following line:
"Precedence: list"
however for this to work I think it should be
"Precedence: bulk"
See also RFC 2076:
http://www.dsv.su.se/jpalme/ietf/ietf-mail-attributes.html
paragraph 3.9 section 'precedence' however it is mentioned that it is not a
standard header but most common value is 'bulk'.
It is also mentioned here:
http://www.landfield.com/faqs/mail/list-admin/software-faq/ (second
paragraph of the section "2.08 Loop detection and elimination")
