procmail has a built-in FROM_DAEMON test that covers this scenario
as well.

I'm back now, with no nastygrams in my mailbox, so at least the
autoresponder did not go completely haywire while I was out...

I've noticed a trend toward PC-based "mail merge" style list manager
software. This software creates individual messages addressed 
directly to each subscriber, with the headers looking no different 
than if they had sent the mail one-on-one directly. These were the 
ones I was worried most about. Neglecting to follow standards, such 
as the lack of even a Precedence or Sender header, pretty much make 
this a case of "they screwed up" as I had theorized before I left.
