For some lists, yes. That's why I don't automatically assume that any OoO reply to any list is always bad, you have to look at the whole picture.
actually, I'd argue that under most circumstances, THOSE lists need an explicit "I'm going to be gone from x to x" message, since if it's that important, the users probably won't be happy finding out you're gone AFTER you leave and WHEN they need you. I still think a mailbot's the wrong way to inform folks of that -- they need a pro-active warning, not a "oh, by the way, forgot to tell you..."
