Okay, understood! :)

I'll report the results of my informal test ... once it gets a chance to settle 
down.

I get about one a day, so in general, it's not a big deal - but I'm in
the once-a-week rotation for everyone's autoresponders, since I post
all the time.  I imagine that a first-time poster will get a lot more
emails, and I'll be interested to see what your experiment reveals.

I've had a few people mention to me offline that they never post to
this list because they get too many autoresponses, which means it's
adversely impacting the community.  To me, *that* is a pretty big
deal.  I'm not interested in kicking people off the list (that would
be counterproductive), but I think that a fair bit of social pressure
is worthwhile.
