Unfortunately our lists are opened to the public, meaning most if not all
the subscribers are not on my mail system and in which I have no control
over their mail client.



Thanks to everyone for their input and help on this, I really do appreciate
it. I think for the time being I will configure the list with Francoise's
suggesting of SET listname IETFHDR for [log in to unmask] As well as Kevin's
advice to configure the content_filter template for the list to handle Out
of Office replys.
