While that's certainly quite true, it remains fundamentally the user's responsibility to not set loose autoresponders without first verifying their correct behaviour in the user's context. Responsibility is an unfashionable concept, I know. Natural consequences of doing otherwise are probably the usual (deserved tongue-lashings, killfiling, etc.). I hope net.people are still aware of this, despite our being now (my goodness!) ten years into the September That Never Ended (q.v.). If not, I can add a new entry to http://linuxmafia.com/~rick/faq/index.php?page=netiquette , if it'll help. -- Cheers, "A raccoon tangled with a 23,000 volt line, today.
