the dangers of reply-to (was Re: [T3] Rhodri Richards is out of the office.)

Folks,

	This looks like it was kicked back by an unknowing digest 
subscriber's vacation message service, which is behaving badly and 
inappropriately responding to the list's new reply-to field.

	If it were from a regular list subscriber, each and every 
list post would cause one of these to get kicked to the list.  In a 
worst-case scenario, even the vacation replies would generate 
vacation replies, flooding all of our mailboxes and our list.  Bad 
bad bad.

	I'll watch this example closely, and will turn off the 
reply-to if it's warranted...
