GOOD auto-responders only send a reply to any one address ONCE.

People will probably get an autoresponder from my email next week, since I am on
the .lsahs email list.

Dave,
I've gotten that message too.  I believe he subscribes to the newsgroup via
email, so it autoreplies anyone who sends him mail - which in this case was
you (via the lugnet newsgroup).  Perhaps if this is a nuisance someone from
the group should mention the autoresponder in regards to lugnet - or, if he
put his email on digest, the dead-end address at Lugnet would pick up the
autoreply, once a day.

Lately I've been once again griping about trivial Star Wars issues,
specifically dealing with the Padme/Amidal "ruse" in TPM.  Out of nowhere • I
suddenly received an "Out of Office Autoreply: Padme Naberrie" from Fraser
Lovatt:

Thank you for your email.

I will be out of the office until 28th September.

If you have a technical issue, please contact the helpdesk on xxxx.

You can email me on xxxxx@xxxxx.com, which I will check every few days, or
if it's an emergency, you can call me on xxxxxxxxx.

Regards,

F

Does anyone know why I might have received this?  I've never corresponded • with
Fraser, and a quick LUGNet search suggests he hasn't been around for • months.
I'm not really bothered by the Email, since it doesn't appear to be SPAM • of
any sort, but I am puzzled about why it came into my box.  Any ideas?

     Dave!
