I think I speak for everyone on the list by saying:

If you INSIST on using software to auto-reply, be it virus-scanners, vacation messages, or the like, PLEASE TAKE THE TIME to configure them not to spam mailing lists which you are subscribed to. If the software doesn't support such a simple feature, then you just may be better off not even running it.

The list members will undoubtedly be thankful; your family just may not disown you anymore; and best of all, you will prevent yourself from looking like a complete moron and/or being hogtied with solid-core Cat5 and thrown into a large bin full of sharp, pointy, and rusty old motherboards.

Thank you.
