I wonder if there is a standard/proper header for this - if not, then you'd only be stopping autoreply loops between two dbmail systems, and would still have the problem between dbmail and some other mail system with a similar brain-dead autoreply. I'd guess there should be something per-site in there, or your auto-replies would never trigger an auto-reply from a remote site (also running dbmail), and that you should actually copy many of the original message headers into your auto-reply (strip out Received-by, Delivered-To, and other similar stuff), so you don't loose the remote site's loop detection header (be it dbmail or some other system). -- Jesse Norell [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not my email address; change "administrator" to my first name. --
