I'm not sure I understand this question.   AUTO-DELETE is a function
performed automatically, as the term implies, by LISTSERV when it is
unable to identify a user or host named in an address.  Human beings
do not auto-delete.
 
However, listowners (human beings) can delete any subscribers they wish.
If they feel a particular subscriber is too much of a nuisance because
his/her account is always bouncing messages, then the listowner should
simply address a message to LISTSERV@<the appropriate node>  saying:
  delete <listname> <subscriber address>        (without the angle brackets)
If the listowner wishes to do this without informing the subscriber
just insert the word   "quiet" (without the ") before the word "delete".
