Do you mean on the server-side? The problem is that this may filter 
out legitimate mail as well (like this one). Users would have to be 
careful not to put the word "Autoreply" in their subject header. 
Besides, not all autoreply messages explicitly say "autoreply" in the 
subject header.

The point is that I am getting this mail sent to me, personally, 
whenever I send a message to the Newbie List. I don't think filters 
are the answer -- there is something even more sinister at work here 
:-)
