Thanks, I'd forgotten about that.  I know the author, will ask him if there
was ever a draft of an update.

Yes, RFC 3834 : Recommendations for 
Automatic Responses to Electronic Mail. See also some discussion in RFC 5230 
 (Sieve Vacation Extension), 
especially sections 4.5/4.6.

[mailop] Autoresponder for EAI mail

2021-02-04 Thread John Levine via mailop
Is anyone aware of autoresponder code that works with UTF8SMTP mail?  It's not 
hard
to write one, but why reinvent a wheel if I can steal the code.

Also, has anyone ever written down in one place the best practices for
doing a non-annoying autoresponder? Things like only respond if you're
on the To: or Cc: line, don't respond to anything with a List-* or
Precedence header, and rate limit responses.

R's,
John
