Well, what about this: if the email doesn't bounce it got there.  Does email
ever get just lost?  Knowing that my message reached Suz's inbox doesn't
tell me that she read it.  Perhaps a "I read your message" standard reply
would be ok, but IMO an auto-reply would be worthless.

Perhaps it could have helped prevent the latest flamewar in that Eric might
not have posted so quickly nor as aggressively. Think of it as a reminder
that the admins have other things to do. Something simple to help keep heads
cool.
