Is there a way to limit the number or auto responses that are sent out to the 
same e-mail address within a certain time period?
How would I combat the described below issue?


Here's my situation;

Company A sends us a monthly notification e-mail to our OTRS inbox notifying us 
of an update to their software.
Our OTRS send back a message to their reply address indicating a ticket has 
been created.

So far so good...

Company A's auto responder now sends back a message saying they have received 
our e-mail, and it will be processed.  This is a generic e-mail, containing 
none of the e-mail we sent to them through the OTRS auto responder, so no 
ticket number.

Our OTRS now sees this as a new incident, creates and new ticket and replies 
back.

Now the loop begins in earnest.   (Wash, rinse, repeat...)
