We should look into: 1) adding headers to our notification emails to prevent (well-behaved) auto-responders from replying 2) check headers that auto-responders add, and not post to tickets/discussions/etc. If there are popular autoresponse systems that don't set a relevant header, and body text needs to be analyzed, we can consider that for a second iteration on this. Will require some research on what standards exist and how popular systems (e.g. gmail, exchange, etc) handle autoresponses. --- Sent from sourceforge.net because allura-dev@incubator.apache.org is subscribed to https://sourceforge.net/p/allura/tickets/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://sourceforge.net/p/allura/admin/tickets/options.
