Just to revise and extend my remarks...I think it is a mistake to
overload the subject-tag feature in the way you suggested. Since
there's no ironclad guarantee that a subject line beginning with
"[something]" is always list mail, you really can't predicate OOO
behavior on it.
If you're not doing the evaluation on MAIL FROM:, then you should be
doing it based on something like Precedence:. (For instance, OOO
should never be sent back if Precedence: is "junk", either.) It
could be some other header, of course, but this one is available for
any MUA author who wants to implement its use.
Anyway...my $0.02.
